STEM/Engineering Calculus STEM Course Online
STEM - Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics - Calculus is usually known as "Engineering Calculus", and is the higher calculus course in the freshman Calculus sequence.Calculus I is designed for STEM majors, which may include:
- Mathematics
- Computer Science
- Science Majors: Biology, Chemistry, Physics
- Engineering Majors
- Economics
If you are planning to major in one of the sciences, you will need to likely take all of the following courses: We invite you to explore our Distance Calculus courses in more detail via the links above, or perhaps the movies below.

Courses Completed: Calculus I, Calculus II
Review: I needed to brush up on my high school calculus and finally take Calc II before starting a graduate program that needed them as prereqs. This was perfect choice to fit in that summer. Got done at fast pace that I wanted and needed. Also had added bonus of one on one feedback and help when needed. Video lessons were better than many on campus instructors in large lecture settings. Recommend for anyone needing to satisfy prereqs at home institution.

Courses Completed: Linear Algebra, Probability Theory
Review: I have difficulty learning calculus based math, akin to dyslexia when examining the symbolic forms, equations, definitions, and problems. Mathematica based calculus courses allowed me to continue with my studies because of the option of seeing the math expressed as a programming language for which I have no difficulty in interpreting visually and the immediate feedback of graphical representations of functions, equations, or data makes a huge impact on understanding. Mathematica based calculus courses should be the default method of teaching Calculus everywhere.

Courses Completed: Calculus I, Calculus II
Review: I did not enjoy Calculus I at my school. I retook Calculus I, and then Calculus II, over the summer via Distance Calculus and it was awesome. I started my sophomore year back on track and ready for my physics classes. I struggled with the MathLive software but I guess it was alright.
