The theory and technique of both differentiation and
integration are studied during the first term, with a
few simple applications, mostly geometric in character.
The second term affords opportunity for many practical
applications from various fields of engineering. The aim of
a set of general review problems during the last few weeks
is to teach not only how to use the methods previously
studied, but when to use them--i.e., whether the nature
of a problem suggests an exact analytical solution, or an
approximate or graphical solution.

Math 31, 32.
Two advanced courses, Differential Equations (first term)
and Vector Analysis (second term), are optional for Juniors
in addition to the work of the regular curriculum. No
attempt will be made to give an exhaustive mathematical
treatment, but certain parts of these subjects will be
taught together with other related material necessary for
the solution of important problems in all branches of
engineering.
_Text: Doherty and Keller, “Mathematics of Modern
Engineering”. Vol I._
Math 31 Differential Equations. First and second order
equations of common occurrence; linear differential
equations of any order with constant coefficients, and
systems of linear equations; determinants; Fourier series
and harmonic analysis.
Math 32 Vector Analysis. Algebra and calculus of vectors;
line and surface integrals, and potential theory; vector
operators, and their application to electromagnetic
theory and the derivation of certain partial differential
equations of mathematical physics.

The courses in mechanics are designed to provide the student with
a sound foundation in a subject which occupies a position of basic
importance in all branches of engineering and especially in the
analysis and design of machines and structures.
While some emphasis is placed on routine calculations and development
of formulas, the main objective of the courses is to present general
methods of attack and a scientific point of view. The greatest emphasis
is placed upon the ability to carry on sustained work at reasonably
high levels.
A considerable portion of the time in the courses is devoted to the
solution of problems of a practical nature and largely drawn from the
field of engineering. In connection with these problems stress is laid
on clearness of statement and accuracy of formulation and solution.
The technique and methodology are considered of extreme importance in
undergraduate study.
