Description

A continuation of EMTH118. Topics covered include methods and Engineering applications of calculus, differential equations, and linear algebra, along with an introduction to probability. This course is a prerequisite for many courses in engineering mathematics and other subjects at 200 level.

This course will consolidate and extend the ideas of calculus and linear algebra learnt in EMTH118.

Due to the condensed nature of this course students are expected to attend every lecture AND every tutorial, at the times specified, on the following days-

Lecture times:  Tues 9-10.30;  Wed 11-12.30;   Thu 1-2.30;   Fri 9-10.30
Tutorial times:  Tues 11-12;     Wed 1-2;          Thu 3-4;       Fri 11-12

The official start date for the course is Monday 26th November 2012, and we will be posting self-study and revision units for you to work on during the first week.
On-campus lectures start on Tuesday 4th December 2012 and the last teaching day before the Christmas break is Friday 21st December 2012.
The test is after the break on Monday 7th January 2013 6pm - 7:30pm and lectures resume on Tuesday 8th January 2013. The last lecture for the course is on Tuesday 29th January. Tutorials follow every lecture, that is, each day there will be a tutorial with exercises to practise the material covered in that day's lecture. The final exam will be held on Tuesday 5th February 2013.
