Objectives
Acquiring the necessary mathematical background involved in engineering. Promoting of a critual way of thinking.

Topics
The first part of the course concerns an overview of differential equations of first order. Next it discusses some differential equations of second and higher degree.
Much importance is given to linear differential equations with constant coefficients and their applications.
The chapter 'Series' discusses criteria of convergence and divergence of infinite series, series of functions and power series.
Next are treated Taylor en Mc Laurin series and their respective applications.
We end the course with Fourier series.


Prerequisites
