Study Materials

Update: I have moved the study materials to the e-learning website of FISAT http://elearn.fisat.ac.in/

_____________________________________________

Here are some presentations and tutorial sheets which I use for teaching the courses I have offered. These documents are not meant for self study of subjects listed, but, acts as a supplement to my classes. The framework is Mahatma Gandhi University Syllabus for B.Tech & M.Tech, and the new KTU syllabus.

Why do I share this in public? If others have not shared, It would not have been possible for me to compile this! Afterall, teaching is all about sharing

If you find errors, missing things etc., feel free to write to me at unnikartha[at]gmail[dot]com
