Aerospace PDEs for 3rd Year Students

This document outlines the specifications for the course "Partial Differential Equations" given during the 2005-2006 academic year at the University of Cairo's Faculty of Engineering. The 3-credit, third-year course is a major requirement for students in the Aerospace Engineering program. Over 14 weeks, students will learn about systems of nonlinear ordinary differential equations, classification of partial differential equations, analytic and numerical solutions to such equations, and apply these concepts to practical problems through assignments, tests, and exams. The course aims to teach fundamental partial differential equation concepts and analytical problem-solving skills.
