Investigations of a fundamental and/or applied nature representing an original contribution to the scholarly research literature of the field. PhD dissertations are often published in refereed journals or presented at major conferences. A written dissertation must be completed in accordance with the rules of the Graduate School and the College of Engineering. Admission to the course is based on successful completion of the PhD comprehensive examination and submission of a formal proposal endorsed by the student's graduate committee and submitted to the EAS Graduate Program Director.
An introduction to ordinary differential equations and their analysis. Topics cover first order linear and nonlinear ordinary differential equations, second order and higher order homogeneous and nonhomogeneous linear differential equations, the linear system of ordinary differential equations, qualitative analysis, numerical solutions, series solutions.
An introduction to numerical linear algebra. Numerical linear algebra is fundamental to all areas of computational mathematics. This course will cover direct numerical methods for solving linear systems and linear least squares problems, stability and conditioning, computational methods for finding eigenvalues and eigenvectors, and iterative methods for both linear systems and eigenvalue problems.
