Course Description

Mathematical Methods  is a one  semester, upper-level module that emphasizes the mathematics used to solve the problems of applied mathematics and engineering. The objective of this course is to enable students to apply various integral  transforms to solve differential equations. The course also explore the use of calculus of variation and integral equations. The students will become knowledgeable about the methods of applied mathematics. The course will also develop an understanding of the elements of analysis of method used to solve real life problems. The course credit are 3.5 (3 Lectures and 1 Tutorial). The details are given in the Course Syllabus.
