MAT 3020 - ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

credits: 4.0
This is an introduction to the principles of solving ordinary differential equations (ODE), which provide the basis for much of the quantitative analysis in both the physical and social sciences. Methods of solving differential equations using analytic, numerical and graphical techniques as well as pertinent theory will be discussed. The computer lab is designed to familiarize students with software that is currently available to solve ODE’s. Method of Instruction: Lecture, discussion, and computer labs with problem solving. Method of Evaluation: In-class and take home exams, pencil and paper assignments and computer assignments.

Prerequisite(s): MAT 3010 - CALCULUS III
