Course description
To lead ordinary differential equations and partial differential equations, applied analysis covers mathematical modelling in biology, economics, physics, and chemistry as an introduction against undergraduate students.
Purpose of class
Students should study a mathematical modelling which lead to ordinary differential equations and partial differential equations through practicing experimentations and observations. In addition, students should learn a theoretical method and numerical analytical approach for solving these differential equations.
Goals and objectives
  1. To understand the mathematical modelling in various fields
  2. To understand the derivation and solution of ordinary differential equations
  3. To understand the derivation and solution of partial differential equations
