PHY 280 Mathematical Methods for Physics

This course is an intermediate-level course that covers much of the mathematics that will be used in the upper-division physics courses. Topics covered include infinite and power series, complex variables, linear algebra, vector analysis, differential equations, and Fourier analysis as applied to a variety of physics problems. Must be completed with a grade of “C” or better to count toward the physics major and minor. Lecture only.
