Student Learning Outcomes


This course concerns three complementary theories of integration due to Riemann, Riemann-
Stieltjes and Lebesgue. The student learning outcomes for the course are:

1. State the definitions of fundamental concepts in each integration theory

2. State fundamental theorems on the existence and properties of each of these integrals

3. Calculate concrete integrals, rigorously justifying each step using the theory

4. Apply integration theory to prove results about specific classes of functions

5. Construct examples that illustrate aspects of the theory

6. Reproduce proofs of major results in the theory

7. Construct proofs of known results that expand upon the theory discussed in lectures

8. Explain the advantages and limitations of each of the three theories of integration

Academic Calendar and Assignments


The Lecture Notes and Homework Assignments will be posted on the course web page. Most
of the problems will be graded. Make sure your homework paper is stapled.

Grading Policy
Grades: Homework 40%, Midterm Exam 25%, Final Exam 35%
Midterm Exam: Wednesday Feb 28th in class [75 minutes]
Final Exam: TBA. The final exam will be based on the whole course.

Instructor Policies
Homework
No late homework will be accepted! You may ask me questions about the homework and you
may discuss a first draft of your solutions with another student in the class. However the
final version must be your own. After your homework has been graded for the first time, you
may be given the opportunity to resubmit selected questions to be graded a second time.

Making up an exam you missed
If you miss one of the exams you may be given the chance to take a make up exam. To
request a make up you should contact me no later than 48 hours after the exam time.
Generally speaking, you will be offered a make up if you are sick or if a close relative or
friend is gravely injured/sick or dies. However I will listen to all reasonable requests. Be
prepared to bring appropriate evidence in support of your request.

Academic Integrity
I will be vigorous in reporting all instances of cheating to the University administration. See
