Course summary
MATH4511 is a challenging course that covers the basics of differentiable manifolds and requires a strong background in calculus. It's good for students who are comfortable with abstract concepts and are willing to put in significant effort, as it can be quite heavy on workload but offers generous grading. Lectures are engaging, though some find them too focused on definitions.
Grading is generally generous, especially under Professor Lu’s teaching where homework and tests are leniently marked, with opportunities for revisions.
The course has a moderate to heavy workload, particularly for beginners. It requires consistent engagement with the textbook and regular problem-solving exercises.
Assessments include two midterms (one oral), a final exam, and homework assignments. Grading is lenient, allowing multiple opportunities for improvement.
Professor Lu’s lectures are engaging and clear but can be too focused on definitions at times. Students appreciate his generous grading policies.
