Special Topic - Mathematics of the Physical World
“The great book of nature", wrote Galileo, "can be read only by those who know the language in which it was written. And this language is mathematics." Doing good science means doing good mathematics, and applied mathematics is the common language of modern interdisciplinary teamsof scientists. This course will be an introduction to the foundational areas of applied mathematics which are used to solve problems in biology, aeronautics, medicine, industry, and pure science, and will cover key techniques and theorems. The course is suitable for mathematics students who enjoy both rigour and applications, and to science students with an interest in mathematics. A background in analysis or PDEs is recommended.
