Where MATH-2102 counts
Required by 5 programs:
Counts toward 4 more as one option among several, not as a course you must take:
Read from the departments' own calendar pages, where 50 of 208 programs are only partly machine-readable, so treat these as a minimum rather than the full list. Confirm with an academic advisor.
Description
This is an introduction to differential equations including the following topics: solution of first order equations, reduction techniques, solution of nth order linear differential equations, and the Laplace transform method.
Requisite courses
MATH-1101, or MATH-1103 and MATH-1104 [prerequisite(s)]; MATH-1201 (must be taken previously or at the same time as this course).
Note
Students who have already completed MATH-1201(3) or the former MATH-2201(6) should inform registration staff that they have standing in one of the corequisite courses.
