Mathematical methods for physics
7.5 creditsThe course intends to provide the students with the mathematics that they need for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate study in physical sciences and engineering, and to develop a strong background for those who will continue into the mathematics of advanced theoretical physics. The course also presents the mathematical methods of quantum mechanics in a form which emphasizes the unity of different techniques.
Distance – study where you are
Distance learning can be structured in different ways – it may be entirely online, or include a few on-campus sessions or meetings at one of our learning centres. The common factor is that most of the learning happens online.
You communicate with your teacher and fellow students through a learning platform, which provides access to discussion forums, group work opportunities, and digital meetings. In many cases, you also have access to recorded lectures via the platform.
The advantage of distance learning is its flexibility – ideal for those who want more freedom to decide when and where to study. However, keep in mind that some mandatory elements of your programme may take place during working hours, even if they are conducted online.
