COURSEOBJECTIVES:
The objective of this course is to familiarize the prospective engineers with techniques of applied
mathematics. It aims to equip the students with standard concepts, tools and mathematical
software sat an intermediate level that will serve them well towards tackling mathematical
problem and applications that they would find useful in their disciplines. Mainly, the objectives
are:
1. To introduce the notion of differential calculus and their related properties and applications.
2. To present the notion of integral calculus and their properties.
3. To familiarize with applications of differential and integral calculus.
4. To develop the essential tool of vector calculus to deal with higher order problems.
5. To comprehend the idea of matrices and their applications in solving the system of equation
COURSE OUTCOMES(s):At the end of this course, the students will be able:
1. To visualize and conceptualize the engineering problems.
2. To model the engineering problem mathematically using theory of calculus and matrices.
3. To determine the solution of the studied engineering problem from application point of view.
4. To validate the solution.
5. To implement the solution for engineering problem.
