COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This course is intended for all engineering students to have a firm foundation on differential equations in preparation for their degree-specific advanced
mathematics courses. It covers first order differential equations, nth order linear differential equations and systems of first order linear differential equations. It also
introduces the concept of laplace transforms in solving differential equations. The students are expected to be able to recornize different kinds of differential
equations, determine the existence and uniqueness of solution, select the appropriate methods of solution and interpret the obtained solution. Students are also
expected to relate differential equations to various pratical engineering and scientific problems as well as employ computer technology in solving and verifying
solutions.

GRADING SYSTEM:
a. Class Standing (CS) which includes quizzes, assignments, recitations, laboratory exercises, seat works and requirements.
b. Periodical examinations (PE) refer to Preliminary, Midterm or Final Examination.
CUMULATIVE MIDTERM GRADE = 2/3 MIDTERM GRADE AND 1/3 PRELIM GRADE
CUMULATIVE FINAL GRADE = 2/3 FINAL GRADE + 1/3 CUMULATIVE MIDTERM GRADE
Page 16 of 19
The percentage equivalent of Periodical Examination and the different components of the CS is computed as:
Other course policies are stated in The Student Handbook under Policy on Class Attendance……
1. Per College policy, excused/unexcused absences should not exceed 20% of the assigned number of hours. More than 20% absences incurred
during the semester would mean being dropped from the class roll.
2. Class attendance is important. Class participation is expected and will form a part of the final grade. Students are expected to come to all
classes and be on time. Roll will be checked each class meeting. Classes missed for legitimate reasons, such as illness, temporary duty, are excusable;
however, the student must make up for the missed work by completing class exercise sheets and attending alternate activities.
3. Students are required to read all assigned materials prior to class and be prepared to discuss them and apply them to problem solving
situations presented in class.
Page 17 of 19
4. In this course, students are encouraged to discuss problems with their peers and to seek help from others in understanding the topic. Material
submitted for grading should be the synthesis of the students’ ideas and the input (lectures) they have received. Instances discovered of UNFAIR
ADVANTAGE being taken of any other individual or group will result in a loss of grade substance.
5. Plagiarism: All academic work submitted by students, written or otherwise, is expected to be the result of their own independent thought and
research. In cases where students submit work professing to be their own, but uses the ideas, organization, wording or anything else from another
source without the appropriate acknowledgment, then the student(s) is/are guilty of plagiarism.
a. Students may discuss assignments among themselves or with a professor or tutor, but the actual work/report/result to be submitted should be
done completely and solely by the student. In cases where a student's report or assignment involves research in outside sources or information, the
student must carefully acknowledge exactly what, where and how he/she has utilized the sources or information.
6. Cheating during examinations is never condoned and allowed! Students caught cheating in any form will have their papers confiscated and
will be sent out of the examination room and will not be allowed to retake the exam anymore.
7. Make up policy: Students who are unavoidably absent from an examination (long exams or major exams) or recitation must submit an excuse
letter duly signed by any of his/her parents before he/she can take the missed examination. If the cause of the absence is illness, then the student
must present a medical certificate. Quizzes and exercises missed because of valid absences will be prorated.
8. Quizzes are unannounced while long exams are announced. Strictly no make-up exams on quizzes, long exams and term exams unless an
excuse slip or certification is shown.
9. Students are required to submit course requirements on time to avoid deductions of points.
