Math 341 is the second course of the 340-341 sequence, which covers the material of Math 240-241 and 246. This includes differential and integral calculus of functions of several variables, linear algebra, and ordinary partial differential equations. Because of the more sophisticated perspective in this sequence, some topics in basic topology, differential geometry, and Fourier analysis may also be covered as the need arises. This course is excellent preparation for those intending to take advanced mathematics and science courses.

Here is the syllabus for the course, including exam dates, and grading policy. It also includes a list of supplemental texts we will use during the course.
