Course Learning Outcomes (CLO):

 

At the end of the course, student will able to-

 

  1. find higher order derivatives and hence represent function in power series of (x-a)
  2. apply the knowledge of function of several variables and its derivatives in engineering problems
  3. employ the knowledge of special functions (Gamma, Beta, Elliptic, Error) and its application in engineering problems
  4. use the knowledge of multiple integration and its application for solving engineering problems
