+====== Calculus at Binghamton ======
+===== Overview =====
+The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Binghamton offers a three semester sequence in Calculus (Math 224/225, Math 226/227 and Math 323), as well as a course in Calculus designed for business majors (Math 220). You can also take Math 223/224 for your first semester of the Calculus sequence. Students who want to take Math 223/224, Math 224/225, or Math 220 must pass the Calculus Placement Test, which covers basic precalculus mathematics. Those students who require more background before taking Math 223/224, Math 224/225 or Math 220 can take our Precalculus course, Math 108. There is no placement exam requirement to take Math 108.
+Here are some more details, and links for further information:
+  *[[https://www.binghamton.edu/math/courses/calculus/calculus-registration-help.html|Calculus Registration Help]] This will help with questions and answers regarding Calculus registration.
+  *[[calculus:math_223_224|Introduction to Calculus (Math 223)]] This is an introductory course in preparation for Math 224 "Differential Calculus". This is a 2 credit (half semester) course covering precalculus, limits, rates of change, and the derivative. This course is only offered in the fall. The prerequisite is a passing grade on the [[https://www.binghamton.edu/math/courses/calculus/placement-test.html|Placement Test]].
+  * [[calculus:math_224_225:start|Calculus I (Math 224/225)]] This is the first course in Calculus, covering limits, differentiation, and integration. This course is split into two half-semester courses, Math 224 "Differential Calculus" and Math 225 "Integral Calculus". The prerequisite for Math 224 is a passing grade on the [[https://www.binghamton.edu/math/courses/calculus/placement-test.html|Placement Test]] or a grade of a C- or better in Math 223 (Introduction to Calculus). The prerequisite for Math 225 is a grade of a C- or better in Math 224.
+    * [[https://www.binghamton.edu/math/courses/calculus/placement-test.html|The Placement Test]] A passing grade on this test is a prerequisite for Math 224, Math 223, or Math 220. Follow this link for more information about the test, including a "self-evaluation" form of the test that you can take at home.
+  * [[calculus:math_226_227:start|Calculus II (Math 226/227)]] This covers more integration techniques and applications, sequences, and infinite series. Prerequisite is Calculus I.
+  * [[:calculus:math_323:start|Calculus III (Math 323)]] Multi-variable and vector calculus. Prerequisite is Calculus II.
+  * [[https://courses-math.mathmig.binghamton.edu/math220/math-220-main-page.html|Calculus for Business and Management (Math 220)]] Topics in Calculus, primarily for School of Management students and for economics majors in the BS specialization in financial economics. This course will not be accepted as a prerequisite for Calculus II (Math 226/227). Prerequisite is a passing grade on the [[https://www.binghamton.edu/math/courses/calculus/placement-test.html|Placement Test]].
+  * [[https://courses-math.mathmig.binghamton.edu/math108/|Algebra and Trigonometry (Math 108)]] This is the Precalculus course. It is recommended for students who do not have adequate preparation for Calculus.
+  * The [[https://www.binghamton.edu/math/courses/help-room.html|Math Help Rooms]] offer free mathematics help most weekdays in Whitney Hall.
