OBE-2: Syllabus

Code : MAT565
Course : Advance Differential Equations
Level : Bachelor
Credit Unit : 3
Contact Hour : 4 (3 hr. Lecture, 1 hr. Tutorial)
Part : 6
Course Status : Non-Core
Prerequisite : Further Calculus for Engineers
Course Outcomes : After completing this course, the students should be able to:

 Determine Laplace transforms of functions using definition and

properties.

 Apply inverse Laplace transform to solve differential equations.

 Express any periodic function in a Fourier series form.

 Solve partial differential equations using separable variables

method.

Course Description : This course consists of Laplace transforms, systems of linear first-
order differential equations, Fourier series and boundary value
problems. The students will learn how to express any periodic function
in a Fourier series form. The students will also learn Laplace transform
as a tool to solve ordinary differential equations and system of first and
second order differential equations. The last chapter is to solve the
boundary value problems using the method of separation of variables
and Fourier series.
