COURSE DESCRIPTION
Fundamentals and engineering applications of Fourier series, Fourier transforms, Laplace transforms, complex analysis, vector analysis; engineering and computer applications; introduction to probability and statistics.

PREREQUISITES
Physics 226, Math 250B or equivalent: The principles covered in this course will be applied to a variety of cases that require knowledge of mechanics and electricity. Physics 226 provides you with the background necessary for understanding engineering examples related to the above topics. The subjects covered in Math 250B, such as the general solution procedures for solving ordinary differential equations and linear algebra, also represent the required foundation for Engineering Analysis & Statistics.

TEXTBOOK & RESOURCES Advanced Engineering Mathematics, by E. Kreyszig, 10th Edition, Wiley, 2011. WileyPLUS: https://www.wileyplus.com LEARNING OBJECTIVES FOR THIS COURSE
This course offers introduction to the tools that you will need throughout your engineering career. Any task requiring modeling, analysis, design, or testing heavily depends on mathematical tools. EGME/CE/EE 308 establishes the fundamental background that you will need to identify and learn about these tools. Thus, the main objective of the course is to introduce you to the mathematical principles to be mastered for conducting a variety of engineering tasks, some of which were identified earlier. In addition, this course will facilitate the development of skills needed for formulating multidisciplinary problems, and for effective communication across several engineering disciplines using the common language of mathematics. The lectures and examples presented in the course will assist you achieve the above goals. As the engineering fields continue facing new technical challenges in the 21st Century, the materials and exercises in this course will provide you with a strong foundation for learning more advanced topics and preparing you for long-life learning,

COURSE CONTENT AND ASSIGNMENTS

The list of topics to be covered in this course is attached. The course will approximately follow the schedule as given. Lectures will cover materials related to the study areas and assignments. Students must read the assigned sections of the textbook and handouts completely, go through the examples ahead of the class presentation, and bring to the class any questions they may have. Homework exercises will be assigned during each class meeting.

The solutions for most of the homework sets will be available on a computer network approximately one week after these are assigned. Opportunities for extra credit may be offered to everyone in the class. Extra credit activities will be announced during the semester. Recording of the class lectures is not
permitted.

TESTS AND FINAL EXAM

There will be two tests and a comprehensive final examination. Unannounced quizzes may also be given. You are not permitted to use certain advanced scientific calculators during the exams/quizzes. You are also required to completely shut off your mobile phones during the quiz/exam periods. If you miss a test or the final exam for a medical or other legitimate reason, you must present a medical report or a legal document for justification. Otherwise, a zero grade will be assigned to the test or the final. Make-up tests/quizzes will not be given (except for the final exam). When proper documentation is provided, the weight of the missed test will be shifted to the final exam.

GRADING POLICY
Relative Weight of Course Activities Midterm Tests & Quizzes Final Exam 60% 40% Tentative Basis for Assigning Course Letter Grades* A B C D 90-100% 80-89% 65-79% 50-64%

* The above ranges for the course letter grades may be adjusted based on the overall performance of the class that will be determined at the end of semester. +/- grading will not be used in this course.

ASSESSMENT OF STUDENTS' LEARNING

At the end of semester, the effect of this course on your learning will be assessed based on the following criteria: Ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science & engineering Ability to identify, formulate and solve engineering problems Ability to apply advanced mathematics through calculus and differential equations

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Disruptive activities that cause distractions for other students the classroom are not allowed. Such disruptive behaviors include: Late arrival to the lab; early exit from the lab; using mobile phones/pagers; texting; eating; and conversations outside the course-related discussions led by the instructor. Additional information on this issue, and possible disciplinary actions for disruptive behavior, can be found in the Student Handbook at: http://www.fullerton.edu/handbook/. The University requires students with disabilities to register with the Office of Disabled Student Services, located in UH-101 and at (657) 278-3117, in order to receive accommodations appropriate to their disability. Students requesting accommodations should also inform the instructor, during the first week of classes, about any disability or special needs that they have. Additional information is available at http://www.fullerton.edu/DSS/. During an emergency it is necessary for students to have a basic understanding of their personal responsibilities and the Universitys emergency response procedures. Please review these procedures that are posted at http://prepare.fullerton.edu/. Academic dishonesty will not be tolerated. According to the CSUFs University Policy, Academic dishonesty includes such things as cheating, inventing false information or citations, plagiarism, and helping someone else commit an act of academic dishonesty. It usually involves an attempt by a student to show possession of a level of knowledge or skill which he/she does not possess. More details are available at: http://www.fullerton.edu/senate/PDF/300/UPS300-021.pdf. Additional information on all the University regulations can be found in the University Catalog or through the CSUF website at www.fullerton.edu.
