Course abstract
The aim of this course is to provide students with compilation of equations of mathematical physics for description of different systems. Students will gain knowledge about formal solution schemes of equations and their realization on computer.
Learning outcomes and their assessment
After completing the course students will have:
• knowledge about regularity of essential concepts of mathematical physics and critical understanding of how to use it in real-world process description;
• skills to apply knowledge in calculation for their branch of research, summarize and analytically describe the results;
• competence to evaluate results of calculations in solving of mathematical physics problems.
