Office Hours: Tuesdays and Thursdays 4:30-5:30pm, or by appointment Department: Mathematics Course and Section: MAT2310444, meets in room 9-211, TR 5:30-7:55pm. Semester: Summer 2013 Number of Credit Hours: 4 Prerequisites: a C or better in MAT203 or equivalent course. Description: Ordinary differential equations of first and second order including power series solutions, the Laplace transform, numerical approximation methods, and applications. Objectives: The course will increase the mathematical maturity of the student. It will develop in the student the techniques, skills, and theories necessary to solve the types of differential equations most commonly met in science and engineering. It is very important that you take your math courses consecutively; increased lag time between math courses is one of the major impediments to success.

MTH 2310-444 Course Information Sheet


Quizzes: Do all of the assigned problems. Write out the solutions showing all work, just as you would on a test. Your homework must meet the Homework Grading Criteria otherwise it will not qualify for a grade. It is very important that you do the homework faithfully and carefully since you will have a turn in homework or have quiz every class. I may choose to collect these problems instead of giving a quiz; your score on these problems. The lowest quiz and homework grades will be dropped at the end of the semester. Exams: Four chapter exams and a comprehensive final are to be given, the students are required to answer the questions and show all work in order to qualify for full credit.

Grading Scale: The grading scale to be used on quizzes and exams is as follows: A: 90-100 B: 80-89 C: 70-79 D: 60-69 F: <60

Grading: Four exams: 15% each Average of quizzes/homework: 20% Final Exam: 20% Attendance Policy: Students are expected to show up to class on time and leave only when permitted by the instructor. Arriving late to class or leaving early is disruptive and will not be tolerated unless discussed ahead of time with the instructor.

Homework and Quizzes Policy: No late homework will be accepted. Quizzes or homework will not be accepted if the student violates the attendance policy.

Make-up: The student should have proper proof and a justified excuse if willing to make up exams. The exam should be made-up within a week of the scheduled date, the grade will incur a penalty of 10 % for the first justified make-up, 20 % for the second, 30 % for the third, and no make-ups allowed after that. Keep in mind that make-up exams are usually more difficult than the in-class exams. No make-up is allowed for the final exam. Calculator Policy: A scientific calculator is required. A graphing calculator such as a TI83, TI-84, TI-85 (or TI-86) is allowed. Cell/Smart Phones, PDAs, and Pagers: Cell/smart phones, PDAs, and pagers are to be turned off during class or at least put in silent mode. Under no circumstances are cell phones to be used during class, including texting. Using such devices in class is disruptive and compromises the learning environment for everyone. Your adherence to this policy is highly appreciated.
