Differential Equations
Learn how to solve differential equations and understand their relevance in engineering with this comprehensive course. Designed for sophomores in engineering majors, students currently enrolled in differential equations, and young professionals looking to brush up on their engineering mathematics. Gain the skills to break down complex problems into simple pieces and approach fundamental topics with ease. This course will provide you with the knowledge and confidence to excel in your future classes and career. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to learn from an experienced instructor and simplify your learning process.
What you’ll learn
- Differential Equations
- Engineering mathematics/calculus
- 1st and 2nd order differential equations
- First order linear and non-linear systems of differential equations
Differential Equations are commonly used to describe real life phenomenon such as: tank mixing, vibrations, population dynamics, radioactive decay, falling with air resistance, etc. We will study common differential equations and how to solve them.
I find too often that students don’t know why they are learning something or how it relates to future classes or career. Some professors are too focused on getting the material over to you and giving you the test. Sound familiar? I will teach you how to think like an engineer, which means being able to break down complicated problems into simple pieces that you already know how to do! I recognize that students value simplicity and logic over complicated derivations and memorized processes. I will teach you the simplest way that has helped my students become successful for the past 5 years.
By the end of the course, you will know how to approach fundamental problems in each of the major topics and explain why they are relevant in engineering. The course is designed to also be used as a reference when you are taking the full version of the course as well, so don’t be afraid if you don’t pick everything up the first time you see it! My hope is that you have the “ah-ha that’s why Scott approached it that way” moment when you take the real course.
Who this course is for:
- Sophomores in engineering majors
- Students who will be taking Differential Equations
- Students who are currently enrolled in Differential Equations
- Young professionals who want to brush up on their engineering mathematics
