The second option is ROB 201: Calculus for the Modern Engineer, a streamlined 4-credit course completed in a single semester. Designed for students in robotics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, aerospace engineering, computer science, physics, and naval architecture, ROB 201 focuses on the most critical aspects of calculus while emphasizing practical applications. You’ll not only learn what calculus is but also why it matters and how to use it in solving real-world problems.
