Students interested in Computational and Applied Analysis
include
[1] courses from differential equations, advanced
calculus or real analysis, complex analysis, and numerical
analysis--the more ``continuous'' offerings. Modeling, simulation,
and optimization courses are also important, as are advanced courses
in the physical sciences.
Mathematics. Beginning with majors entering OSU in Fall 1993, 4023 (Intro to Modern Analysis) is required.
These courses fit in the 15-hour block required for the major: 4013 (Vector Calc), 4143-4153 (Advanced Calculus), 4233 (Diff. Eqns.), 4283 (Complex Analysis), 4513 (Numerical Analysis), 4553 (Lin. and Nonlin. Programming), 4583 (Modeling), 5023 (Advanced Linear), 5593 (Methods of Appl. Math).
Electives: 5133 (Stochastic Processes), 5233 (PDE), 5243-5253
(ODE), 5283-5293 (Complex Analysis), 5523 (Calc of
Variations), 5543-5553 (Numerical Analysis), 5580 (Case Studies in
Appl. Math).
Statistics. STAT 4113 (Probability), and many others.
Computer Science. COMSC 3513 (Numerical Methods), 4113 (Intro
to Numerical Methods
[2] through FORTRAN), 5013 (Linear
Programming), 5513 (Numerical Analysis).
Electrical and Computer Engineering. ECEN 5413-6450 (Control Systems), 5713 (System Theory), 5723-6723 (Nonlinear Systems Analysis).
General Remark. Again, many of these courses have official prerequisites. Ask your instructor whether you really need them.
