Engineering Analysis

I developed notes and taught the class in 2014.

This is a first-year graduate course covering topics in mathematics that are central for solving practical engineering problems. Topics include but are not limited to: differential equations, matrix and linear algebra, vector calculus, and selective topics such as introduction to optimization and probability.

Textbook

Erwin Kreyszig: Advanced Engineering Mathematics, 10th edition.
