MATH 219 Introduction to Differential Equations

Credit: (4-0) 4

Catalog description: First order equations and various applications. Higher order linear differential equations.
Power series solutions. The Laplace transform. Solutions of initial value problems. Systems of linear
differential equations. Introduction to partial differential equations.

Course Objectives: By the end of this course, a student will:

classify and identify different types of differential equations,


explicitly solve several important classes of ordinary differential equations and interpret their qualitative
behaviour,
apply ideas from linear algebra in order to solve single linear ordinary differential equations and systems
of such equations,
model certain physical phenomena using differential equations and reinterpret their solutions physically,
use power series methods to solve second order linear differential equations
apply the Laplace transform for solving differential equations,
use the method of separation of variables in order to solve some basic partial differential equations via
Fourier series.

Course Assistant: Levent Aybak (Office: Z-43, Phone: (312) 210 5360) aybak@metu.edu.tr

Course Website: http://ma219.math.metu.edu.tr/ and https://metuclass.metu.edu.tr/

Textbook: Elementary Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems, Boyce, W. E., DiPrima, R. C.,
9th ed.

Exams and Grading:


Midterm 1 : 35 % (21.11.2015, Saturday)
Midterm 2 : 30 % (26.12.2015, Saturday)
Final : 40 % (To be announced)
Total : 105 (5% bonus)

Attendance: Attendance is required. Policy varies from section to section.

Suggested Problems:A list of suggested problems will be announced on the course website. Students are
encouraged to attempt to solve all of these problems in a timely manner, and ask the instructors about the ones
that they cannot solve. At least 25% of the exam problems will be chosen among these problems.

NA Policy: A student who misses all exams will receive a grade of NA for the course. In addition, a student
with weighted average of Midterm 1 and Midterm 2 grades less than 15% will not be eligible to take the final
examination and receive a grade of NA from the course (assuming that midterm 1 and 2 grades are M1 and M2
respectively, this condition is (0.35*M1+0.30*M2)/0.65<15).

Make-up Policy: In order to be eligible to enter a make-up examination for a missed examination, a student
should have a documented or verifiable, and officially acceptable excuse. A student cannot get make-up
examinations for two missed exams. The make-up examination for all exams will be after the final exam, and
will include all topics.
