Topics include ordinary differential equations, Fourier series and integrals, the Laplace transformation, Bessel functions and Legendre polynomials, and an introduction to partial differential equations. This course is specifically designed to provide the mathematical preparation required for entry into the applied physics or electrical engineering Master of Science degree program. This course is designed for students who do not have a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering. This course provides the prerequisite material needed before entering many of the telecommunications courses offered in the Master of Science in Electrical Engineering program. Topics include signal representations, linearity, time-invariance, convolution, and Fourier series and transforms.
Coverage includes both continuous and discrete-time systems.
This course is not applicable to the Master of Science in Electrical Engineering curriculum and will not be counted as an elective toward that degree. This course addresses quality assurance topics and quality leadership in business process management suitable in applications for various engineering disciplines. Course discussions include the latest in quality and productivity improvement tools, techniques, and the implementation of quality initiatives. Advanced topics related to the principles and application of total quality, quality leadership, and quality management in the new millennium are presented. The course covers the Malcolm Baldrige Award criteria, and a comprehensive practical understanding of the ISO 9000 standards.
