Objectives
To introduce, in a concrete way, the main results of Classical Analysis of several variables as well as the ones of Vector Analysis, emphasizing techniques specific to this area as well as their applications.
Learning outcomes and competences
The student is expected to learn the basic ideas and main results of the subject as well as becoming familiar with the main tools referred to in the syllabus.

Teaching methods and learning activities
Expository lectures. Interconnection between lectures and tutorial classes at the level of exercises and examples and of theoretical results.
It is assumed that the student uses the compulsory bibliography to complement the exposition made in the lectures, to explore the examples and to solve exercises. This must be done in an autonomous way but under general guidance given by the professor.

Eligibility for exams
Not applicable
Calculation formula of final grade
Evaluation in the first season is performed through a mandatory written examination. Approval requires mark not inferior to 9,5 points.
All other assesment situations, in particular improving grades from other calls and substitution exams allowed by the regulations, will be performed through an oral or written exam which may be preceded by a simple oral exam to verify if the student is minimally prepared to take the exam.
Special assessment (TE, DA, ...)
Special exams will consist of an oral or written test, which may be preceded by a simple oral exam to verify if the student is minimally prepared to realize the exam.
Classification improvement
By exam in accordance with the regulations. Results from distributed assesment in previous academic years cannot be used.
