1. Scopes and Objectives of the Course:
This Course reviews and continues the study of differential equations with the objective of
introducing classical methods for solving boundary value problems. This course serves as a
basis of the applications for differential equations, Fourier series and Laplace transform in
various branches of engineering and sciences. This course emphasizes the role of orthogonal
polynomials in dealing with Sturm-Liouville problems.
