    This course covers partial differential equations (PDEs) including definitions, classifications, methods of solution, and numerical methods. The syllabus includes first and second order PDEs like the heat, wave, and Laplace equations. It covers initial and boundary value problems, characteristics, separation of variables, and finite difference methods. The goal is to develop modeling skills for describing change using commonly used PDE approaches.
