The aim of the course:
Understand how much of the geometry of a surface is idependent of its shape. Investigate the geometric properties of surfaces independent of the space that they lie in.
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : Grasp Euclidean space and surfaces in Euclidean spaces
PO - 2 : Make alculations on surfaces in local koordinates
PO - 3 : Investigate surfaces and their geometric properties independent from the space that it is located
CTPO : Contribution to programme outcomes, TOA :Type of assessment (1: written exam, 2: Oral exam, 3: Homework assignment, 4: Laboratory exercise/exam, 5: Seminar / presentation, 6: Term paper), PO : Learning Outcome
