- Covers advanced mathematical methods topics that are commonly used in the physical sciences, such as complex calculus, Fourier transforms, special functions, and the principles of variational calculus.
- Applies these methods to computational simulation and modeling exercises.
- Introduces basic computational techniques and numerical analysis, such as Newton's method, Monte Carlo integration, gradient descent, and least squares regression.
- Uses a simple programming language, such as MATLAB, for the exercises.
