CISE-301 Course Syllabus 1/3


Five points will be given for attendance:
- The first absence and the first late attendance do not affect the attendance points.
- For each subsequent absence, 1/2 point is deducted.
- For each subsequent late attendance, 1/4 point is deducted.

Course Objectives:
The course aims to introduce numerical methods used for the solution of
engineering problems. The course emphasizes algorithm development and
programming and application to realistic engineering problems.

Course Outcomes:
At the end of this course, students should be able to:
1. Use Taylor Series to approximate functions and evaluate the approximations
error.
2. Program algorithms to locate the roots of equations.
3. Program algorithms to solve linear system of equations.
4. Smooth engineering collected data using least square method.
5. Use polynomials to interpolate engineering collected data or approximate
function
6. Program algorithms to evaluate the derivative or the integral of a given function
and evaluate the approximation error.
7. Program to solve engineering Ordinary Differential Equations (ODE) or Partial
Differential Equations (PDE).
8. Grasp relationships among methods, algorithms and computer errors.
9. Apply numerical and computer programming to solve common engineering
problems.
10. Apply versatile software tools in attacking numerical problems.

Computer usage:
Students may use FORTRAN, C, or Java to write programs to solve computer
homework assignments.
