Core Courses
There are four core courses:
- A1 Mathematical Methods I
- A2 Mathematical Methods II
- B1 Numerical Linear Algebra and Numerical Solution of Partial Differential Equations
- B2 Further Numerical Linear Algebra and Continuous Optimisation
The core courses consist of both lectures and examples classes, and students must attend both. Some preparatory reading relating to the core courses is suggested. Recent past exam papers and solutions provide a good source of revision questions. In addition, older past exam papers can be found on the SOLO website.
A1 Mathematical Methods I
The Mathematical Methods I core course consists of 24 lectures in MT as follows:
- The 16 lectures comprising Applied Partial Differential Equations (Professor Peter Howell), synopsis
