Learning outcomes The main goal of the Calculus II course is to develop skills and knowledge in differential and integral calculus of real functions of several real variables, providing the student with a range of essential tools in areas of exact or applied sciences. It is also intended to develop graphical perception and three-dimensional visualization by improving geometric skills and introducing fundamental concepts and
techniques on ordinary differential equations and their applications in mathematical modelling.
