This document outlines 93 sessions of a finite element method course covering topics like stress-strain relations, discretization methods, truss and beam modeling, 2D analysis, higher order elements, heat transfer, and dynamics. The course progressed from introductory sessions on variational formulations and 1D problems to more advanced topics such as isoparametric elements, numerical integration, heat transfer analysis, and modal/transient dynamic analysis. Tutorial sessions were interspersed to provide hands-on problem solving experience applying the covered concepts.
