The course will require approximately 8-10 hours of your time per week in total effort.

Students should have completed entry-level college calculus courses that include an introduction to multivariable differential calculus; additional introductory mathematics and statistics coursework is desirable.

Is there a statement of completion or certificate issued for this course?

No, sorry there is not a credential awarded for this course.

How do I enter math equations into quizzes?

Some quiz questions may require math expressions as the answer. For these questions, please make use of the Preview button just below the answer text box, as it will show you how your answer will be interpreted by the grading program. If the preview yields an error, then you should proofread your entry. For further explanation please see this help page: http://help.coursera.org/customer/portal/articles/1163266-how-can-i-enter-math-expressions-in-quizzes-

Can I stop the lecture stream and/or the assessment quizzes without losing work?

The lectures are essentially like YouTube videos, so if you stop it mid-stream, you can just start it again. For the quizzes, there is a "Save Answers" button at the bottom of each quiz that will allow you to carry over answers from session to session.

Why can't I download the video lectures?

The University of Washington is committed to working with some of the world's leading instructors to provide high-quality, free education globally.

We have removed the ability to download course video from Coursera for a number of reasons:
  1. Our video contains functionality which only works within the Coursera environment.  Downloading it to another platform, such as YouTube, prevents this from working as designed.
  2. Our ability to bring you a free course means that we must protect its content so that it is viewed as intended, as a component of an instructionally coherent educational program in Coursera.
We hope that you understand our need to maintain a quality standard and continue to enjoy the course.

Can I access the course and contents after it ends?

All quizzes and homework assignments need to be completed by the listed due dates. After this date, currently enrolled students can continue to access this course session via a "View class archive" button on the Coursera landing page for the course. As this course may be run in the future, students may choose to enroll in and attend a new session of the course if they wish. You can choose to Sign Up for future sessions on the Coursera home page https://www.coursera.org/uw .
