BIL 108E - Intr. to Sci. & Eng.Computing

Course Objectives

This course is an introduction to scientific and engineering computing in engineering and science through numerical methods and computer applications. The intention of the course is to provide students with state of the art computational tools for the analysis of basic mathematical and engineering problems. The objectives of the course are such that students get familiarized with the fundamentals of scientific computing concepts to develop problem solving skills, construct algorithms and learn scientific and engineering calculations. Students will also be trained to visualize their results and prepare written reports.

Course Description

Introduction to scientific and engineering computing. Use of softwares such as MATLAB is introduced in the course to present the students with the tools to start writing algorithms and do practical applications with them.
