As an undergraduate, I took five semesters of calculus. The last semester on partial differential equations supposedly gave me a head start for grad school in my chosen field of chemistry. But, unlike ...

University calculus courses can often negatively and inequitably affect student success in STEM, as these challenging yet foundational classes can act as a barrier to achievement for students from ...

If you are a new engineering first-year student starting in the fall semester, you will most likely be pre-enrolled in an Applied Math (APPM) pre-calculus or calculus course based on patterns of prior ...

Princeton Professor Andrew Houck’s calculus students had just finished grappling with a set of equations on the forces of tension and gravity when he pulled a large pendulum back to his shoulder and ...

Engineering Mathematics: Even though engineering is more varied than ever in 2026, some mathematical principles are still applicable. Calculus (including Differential Equations) and Linear Algebra are ...

I took AP calculus in high school, graduated from Georgia Tech, taught high-school math and finally settled in as an analyst at a major airline. I couldn’t agree more with James Markarian questioning ...
