MATH 2760 - Differential Equations and Linear Algebra

Institution:

Saint Paul College

Subject:

Description:

This course is an introduction to differential equations and linear algebra, which focuses on ordinary differential equations but students will be introduced to partial differential equations. Topics include the basic definition, terminology and ideas of ordinary differential equation, finding solutions of and working with applications of first and second order differential equations, existence and uniqueness of solutions, variation of parameters, undetermined coefficients, matrix formulation of linear systems, Laplace transforms, and an introduction to numerical and graphical methods of solutions. Additional topics include Gauss-Jordan reduction and system of Linear equations, matrices and coordinates relative to different bases, general linear spaces, orthogonality, determinants, eigenvalues, eigenvectors, and phase plane analysis of linear and nonlinear systems of ordinary differential equations. (Prerequisite(s): MATH 2750 Calculus 2 with a grade of "C" or better or appropriate assessment score) (MnTC: Goal 4) 4C/4/0/0
