Course Goals

Topic Outline

Course Administration

There will be mid-term (10/11/04) and final exam (9:45 AM, Friday 12/17/04), plus regular homework assignments. The weighting of these items in grade determination is as follows:

homework 30%
mid-term exam 25%
final exam 40%
subjective 5%

You are encouraged to consult sources other than our texts (even if there is no directed reading assignment), including both reserve books and on-line material. You should also feel free to discuss the course topics with your classmates (even general approaches to homework problems) since it is a genuinely helpful learning activity to formulate your own thoughts about the material sufficiently to express them to others. But since the homework counts as a significant portion of your grade, it is expected that submitted work will be strictly your own; the department has explicit procedures for cheating that are described in the Graduate Handbook.
