Class Information

Welcome, all to the new Fall 2010 semester. This page will serve as your access point for all information disseminated including syllabus and schedules. You may download a proposed schedule using the link above, however, the latest will always be available on this site.

This course will require the use of MathCad for executing advanced numerical problems. Version MCAD 13 is available in the resource room. Students often prefer to acquire their own copies. The software is very expensive in general however can be obtained for about $100 from www.academicsuperstore.com. The first class lecture will introduce this software and assignments will be made. The faster you can get comfortable with this software, the more you can devote your attention to the topics being presented.

We will have the rare and very fortunate opportunity of having a dedicated course assistant this semester. He is a very skilled individual that has gone through this course very successfully. You will find him to be an excellent resource and an extraordinary individual.

Below I have the first set of assignments up to the first exam. Also, I've included a set of comments and recommendations from prior course students. I highly recommend that you read and follow their advice as they are one who completed the course successfully.

I look forward to working with all of you this year!

Dr. J
