NJIT HONOR CODE

All Students should be aware that the Department of Mathematical Sciences takes the NJIT Honor code very seriously and enforces it strictly.  This means there must not be any forms of plagiarism, i.e., copying of homework, class projects, or lab assignments, or any form of cheating in quizzes and exams.  Under the Honor Code, students are obligated to report any such activities to the Instructor.

ô Instructor: Prof. Matveev ( Office Hours: Monday 10am-12pm and 4pm-5pm )

ô Textbook:  Vector Calculus, P.C. Matthews, Springer-Verlag, ISBN 3540761802

ô Grading Policy: The final grade in this course will be determined as follows:

± Homework and Quizzes:	37%
± Midterm Exam:	28%
± Final Exam:	35%

ô Homework Policy: Homework is collected once a week, before the lecture on Wednesday. Late homework is not accepted; if you have to be absent from class, consider submitting homework early. Homework problem lists in the syllabus are given as a guideline only; homework assignments may be modified by the instructor.

Class Policies:

Attendance and Participation: Students must attend all classes. Absences from class will inhibit your ability to fully participate in class discussions and problem solving sessions and, therefore, affect your grade. Tardiness to class is very disruptive to the instructor and students, and will not be tolerated.

Makeup Exam Policy: There will be no makeup exams, except in rare situations where the student has a legitimate reason for missing an exam, including illness, death in the family, accident, requirement to appear in court, etc. The student must notify the Math office and the Instructor that he/she will miss an exam. In all cases, the student must present proof for missing the exam, e.g., a doctor's note, police report, court notice, etc., clearly stating the date AND times.

Cellular Phones:  All cellular phones and beepers must be switched off during all class times.
