This course introduces fundamental mathematical methods and analysis in ordinary differential equations and basic knowledge of partial differential equations. It will help students develop skills in solving ordinary differential equations by analytical methods and solving simple partial differential equations by the method of separation of variables. It trains students in the ability to think quantitatively and analyze problems critically.
