Engineering Mathematics III - MATH396

This unit develops techniques and skills that are fundamental in the study and application of mathematics and statistics to engineering problems at an advanced level. In any successful application, two contrasting but complementary skills must be developed: the ability to formulate a given real-world problem in appropriate mathematical or statistical terms; and sufficient knowledge to obtain useful information and testable predictions from that model, by analytical and numerical means. The unit shows how to solve differential and other equations that arise as mathematical models of real phenomena in engineering by appropriate numerical methods on a computer, as well as how to use stochastic process modelling for a variety of engineering scenarios.
