Course Description: 
The course will cover the solutions to various classes of differential equations using analytical, graphical, and numerical methods.  The classes of differential equations covered will include linear and higher order equations with constant and variable coefficients, systems of linear equations with constant coefficients, and some nonlinear equations.  
Course Objectives:
The main objective of this course is to develop a basic understanding of differential equations that will provide a solid foundation for further studies in engineering, physics, and mathematics.   Specific student learning objectives (SLO’s) include
•	Develop mathematical understanding and physical intuition of differential equations as they relate to describing real-world problems 
•	Basic understanding and application of analytical, graphical, and numerical methods for solving various classes of ordinary differential equations that arise in science and engineering 
•	Application of the Laplace transform method to linear differential equations with constant coefficients
                  




Expectations:

Students are expected to attend class on time. Notify me by email or in person prior to any expected absences.  Students are expected to prepare for each lecture by reading the appropriate sections of the textbook and lecture notes (posted in Canvas) to better understand the material presented in class.  Students are expected to participate in class discussions and are encouraged to ask questions about any of the material.  Class participation counts as 5% of the final grade.

Homework:
All homework will be done and submitted online using WebAssign accessed through Canvas.  Each student is expected to keep a notebook showing all work leading to a solution. Collaboration on homework is allowed and encouraged.  Each homework assignment in the notebook should be legible and clearly labeled with the problem number and due date in the top left corner of the page.  The notebook will be collected and graded at the end of the semester.  The combination of homework scores from WebAssign and the notebook grade will contribute equally to the homework grade.  The homework grade counts as 2"
