Course Aims

This course aims to develop a basic understanding of various mathematics tools, with an emphasis on engineering applications to support subsequent courses in BME. Students will learn how to solve ordinary differential equations using analytical methods. Additionally, Fourier series and Laplace transforms will be introduced. The course also covers basic probability and statistical techniques for data analysis and hypothesis testing. Students will be equipped with the quantitative tools necessary for the design and analysis of various engineering systems. Furthermore, there will be a brief introduction to how these tools can be applied in biomedical contexts.
