Math 367,  Principles in Applied Mathematics

Instructor:  Dr. G. Lugo
Office Hours: Os 2016L  MW 11:00 - 11:50 or by appt.
Textbooks: An Introduction to Fourier Analysis, R. Herman, CRC Press, 2016
  Notes on Fourier Analysis

 

Grading:   The grade will be based on the cumulative distribution of your scores on the following
  Homework 150 point
  Exam 1 100 points
  Exam 2 100 points
  Exam 3 100 points
  Final 200 points
 

Most learning takes place through doing homework. You are required to turn in all the assigned problems on the due date. The course presumes familiarity with the content of a standard 3-semester sequence of calculus for science and engineering.

  

Make-up's:

There will be no make-up's, no early exams. If you miss an exam without a proper excuse you will get zero points in that exam. If you miss an additional exam for any reason, you will get zero points on that exam

Grade Replacement

Under exceptional circumstances, students who missed one exam with a proper excuse, will be allowed to replace the score in that exam with the percent score in the final exam.
