Thurs at 9:30 am in MA 115
Descriptive: Title: Higher Mathematics for Engineers and Scientists II
Instructor: Jeffrey M. Lee Ph.D.
Email: jeffrey.lee@ttu.edu
Office Hours: 11:00:00-12:00 PM weekdays in my office; MA 239.
Office hours are subject to possible change once the semester starts so check
with the instructor.
Prerequisites: MATH 2350,3350 or equivalent course
About the Course:
The special
sections of MATH 3350-3351 for EE/CMPE/EECS majors are intended to present the
requisite mathematics for engineering courses in these disciplines in a timely
manner.
Student Learning Outcomes:
(3351) The students will extend their knowledge of
differential equations and their solutions acquired in MATH 3350 by developing
new methods to solve differential equations and by studying the concept of
partial differential equations and their solutions and applications. In
particular, the students learn:
·
about the
fundamental properties of linear systems, and their solutions
·
how to
solve partial differential equations by separation of variables or Fourier
series
·
to apply
these techniques to the three classical equations: the heat, wave, and Laplace’s
equation
·
about
Frobenius’ Theorem and its applications
·
many
examples of Boundary Value Problems that appear in physical sciences and
engineering

Assessment: I will assess student progress and understanding using
quizzes, verbal feedback, in class discussions, quizzes and examinations etc.
The grading itself will be based solely on examinations, homework, quizzes and
perhaps on
attendance.
Examinations, Quizzes and Homework: There will be three midterm
examinations each worth 100 points and a final exam worth a maximum of 200
points. Quizzes and Homework will combine to provide a possible 50 points (this
can be very significant in the end!).
Grading: Grading is based on the percent of possible points
accumulated.
Class Attendance and makeup: Class attendance required and will be
randomly checked. No make-up exams or quizzes will be given unless the absence
is due to a university sanctioned event, severe/life threatening illness or
hospitalization, circumstances beyond the control of the student such as serious
traffic accident. In each case proper documentation should be provided and
advanced notice given to the instructor when such is possible.
Academic Integrity: Cheating on any exam will result in the student
receiving 0% credit for the exam and the student will be reported to the
department chairperson or college dean. Text messaging during an examination
will automatically be considered cheating as will using a calculator in
inappropriate ways.
Civility in the Classroom: Please turn your cell phones off or to silent
BEFORE entering the classroom and keep them out of sight at all times. I expect
your full attention as I will give you mine when you are speaking. Do not
read the newspaper in class.
Students with Disabilities: Any student who, because of a disability, may
require special arrangements in order to meet the course requirements should
contact the instructor as soon as possible to make any necessary arrangements.
Students should present appropriate verification from Student Disability
Services during the instructor’s office hours. Please note instructors are not
allowed to provide classroom accommodations to a student until appropriate
verification from Student Disability Services has been provided. For
additional information, you may contact the Student Disability Services office
at 335 West Hall or 806-742-2405.
