This course is intended for all engineering students to have a firm foundation on differential equations in preparation for their degree-specific advanced mathematics courses. It covers first order differential equations, nth order linear differential equations and systems of first order linear differential equations. It also introduces the concept of Laplace Transform in solving differential equations. The students are expected to be able to recognize different kinds of differential equations, determine the existence and uniqueness of solution, select the appropriate methods of solution and interpret the obtained solution. Students are also expected to relate differential equations to various practical engineering and scientific problems as well as employ computer technology in solving verifying solutions.
