Course description
Natural laws in chemistry and physics are written by mathematics.
Mathematics will provide very useful tools to solve many important and interesting problems in chemistry and physics.
In this lecture. basic principles of mathematics are introduced,and then applications to chemistry and physics are clearly explained.
The lectures include differential and integral calculus, series expansions, differential equations, linear algebra, vector analysis,and some advanced topics.
Expected Learning
Students are expected to understand the following basic principles of mathematics,
(1) Concept of vector, differential, and integral,
(2) Solving a Simple Differential Equation,
(3) simple matrix operation,
(4) Simple vector analysis calculation,
and to understand how to apply mathematics to Mechanics, Electromagnetism and others in Chemistry and Physics.
Corresponding criteria in the Diploma Policy: See the Curriculum maps.
