Course Description
This course is an introduction to differential equations. This subject is a tool you will undoubtably encounter and have occasion to use as you progress through your science and/or engineering courses. We will develop methods for solving (certain classes of) differential equations; develop an understanding of why these methods work; and discuss some applications.
