Welcome! You can download the Syllabus and the Tentative Schedule. Make sure you read them.  (You can get a free Adobe reader from here)
If you need to contact me, the best way  to reach me is to send me an email: dvyorgov@mtu.edu. Or you can come to see me during my office hours M 2-3, W 4-5, R 3-4, or by appointment

You will be able to check your grades online here. Please let me know if there are any discrepancies!

Homework due (at the begining of class each Thursday):

• Homework set is assigned automatically from the attached schedule when I finish a section. The homework for the PREVIOUS week is due on Thursday, next week at the beginning of class.
• The sections to be covered and the HW problems due are in the Tentative Schedule.
• If a homework set (from a SINGLE section of the text) takes more than one sheet of paper, then they should be stapled together.
• Each HW section (e.g. 1.1) must be kept separated (i.e. do not staple together with 1.2).
• When I collect HW there will be three folders: one for students with a last name starting with letters A through I, second folder for students with a last name starting with letters J through P and another one for students with a last name starting with letters R through Z. Please make sure that you put your HW in the correct folder otherwise your HW might be lost or it might be graded much later.
• A subset of 4 problems for each section will be chosen to be graded. Each homework section is worth 12 points. Each problem is worth 3 points.
• All homework within the set will be checked for completeness. The grader can decide to penalize you for problems that you have skipped even if they are not in the graded subset.
• Problems done out-of-sequence may not be graded.
• Strictly NO LATE homework will be accepted unless if it is late due to an excused absence.
• For each problem, restate the problem, show your analysis, and clearly identify the answer to the question. All of your work must be neat, legible and logical. Answers not showing the supporting work will receive zero credit.
