Presents a selection of mathematical techniques needed to understand and progress in advanced physics and engineering. Several important branches of mathematics will be explored including vector analysis, linear algebra, complex analysis, special functions, Fourier series, Fourier transforms, tensor analysis, and group theory. Required for students majoring in Engineering Physics and Engineering 3+2. We expect this to be of interest to students in Chemistry and Mathematics majors
Prerequisite:
PHYS212 AND MATH270
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Applies theoretical and/or experimental research methods to a special problem beyond the scope of traditional coursework. A plan, mutually agreed upon by the student and the supervising instructor, must be approved in advance. This plan will include a set of goals and methods as well as course evaluation criteria. Typically, the project culminates with a formal research presentation and/or paper. 1-3 credits (variable).
