The weekly problem sets are an essential part of the course. Working through these problems is essential to understanding the material.
Problem sets will generally be assigned once every week and will be due the same day in the following week. All problem sets will be posted on the course web site.
Problem set solutions will be posted on the web site following the due date. No problem sets will be accepted after the solutions have been posted.
There will be a two hour mid term and a comprehensive final exam. The final exam will emphasize material from the entire course, and will be a mixture of factual questions and problems.
There is no term paper required for this course.
The final grade for the course will be based on the following:
| ACTIVITIES | PERCENTAGES |
|---|---|
| Weekly Problem Sets | 30% |
| Mid Term Exam | 30% |
| Final Exam | 40% |
