AP Calculus BC is designed to be the equivalent to both first and second-semester college calculus courses. Students enrolled in AP Calculus BC apply the content and skills learned in AP Calculus AB to parametrically defined curves, polar curves, and vector-valued functions; students develop additional integration techniques and applications; students explore the topics of sequences and series. Throughout the course, students cultivate their understanding of differential and integral calculus through engaging with real-world problems represented graphically, numerically, analytically, and verbally and using definitions and theorems to build arguments and justify conclusions as they explore concepts like change, limits, and the analysis of functions.

This course is designed for students to create engineering designs and to solve complex problem-solving. The problems presented in this course will be solved individually and in teams using the project/problem-based learning approach. Students will be researching, designing, developing, and communicating solutions to problems while using engineering CAD software. 

As a STEM themed class, students develop critical thinking skills on all levels of study. Students will write or produce engineering reports, perform research, make presentations, and develop engineering patent notebooks and engineering portfolios of their CAD designs to broaden their understanding and reflect on the knowledge gained in class. In this process, students will learn to articulate and communicate effectively, engaging all in the learning process. Discussion and research will span current engineering technological advances. Guest alumnae engineering speakers will present on their professional challenges and career paths to broaden students' perspectives on different engineering types.
