Partial Differential Equations

Catalog description

Fourier series; partial differential equations. Students who have passed MATH 251 may not schedule this course for credit. This course serves as the continuation of MATH 250 (Ordinary Differential Equations) and provides an elementary treatment of partial differential equations and Fourier series. Once a student completes both MATH 250 (3 credits) and MATH 252 (1 credit), the student will have completed all of the material in MATH 251 (4 credits). In particular, the student will be able to find solutions to given partial differential equations and will be able to utilize the tools from the field of Fourier series in the process.
