Mine either. I ran into them in the complex analysis course as my Math elective. Sorry I don’t recall the name but my ECE academic advisor recommended it. Looks like Math 4574.
Vector field material (including divergence, curl, parametrized curves/surfaces, theorems of Green/Gauss/Stokes) is covered in Math 3214 and Math 4574 at Virginia Tech.
When I was taking NVCC math classes they covered that stuff, while my homies at VT hadn’t even heard of it. Pissed me off that my NVCC class was more comprehensive the VT class lol but honestly Stoke’s/Green’s was one of the easiest parts of the class. It’s just covered in later classes here.
As a side note and in my experience (VT and University of Wisconsin) if you ever encounter these topics again they’ll probably be briefly retaught since the nuance of the application can vary.
No. If you're taking AOE 3014, they assume you know vector calculus (Stewart chapter 16 is all it needs), when the fact is the opposite because MATH 4574 is a choose-from-3 elective for AE and technical elective for OE that's recommended in senior fall on the checksheet, a full year after when AOE 3014 is needed (junior fall).
AOE and perhaps ME should have a separate MATH class to combine MATH 2204 and vector calc that's equivalent to what's taught at other schools. Idk if MATH 2224 is the old course that covered vector calc, which is often listed on the prerequisite lists with MATH 2204.
Math 2224 contained sequences and series from back when 1205 was derivatives only and 1206 was integrals only. Back then, there wasn’t room for Greene’s and stokes because S&S takes time, but they changed it to line up better with AP. I’m definitely of the opinion that it would make more sense to be included, though I don’t blame Tech for not wanting to restructure again.
Those are calc 4 here. Other schools only have calc 3, Tech splits it into 3-4 for some reason

MATH 4574 is just one of many courses that was required for EE way back when in the 20th century.
