MTH-604 Computing Tools For Mathematics 3(2-1) 60

The contents of the course are not fixed; however, the following points should be kept in mind while
teaching the course. The purpose of this course is to teach students the use of mathematical software like
MATLAB, MAPLE, MATHEMATICA for solving computationally-difficult problems in mathematics. The

student shall become well versed in using at least one mathematical software and shall learn a number of
techniques that are useful in calculus as well as in other areas of mathematics. The course should be taught in
a computer lab setting. Besides learning to use the software, the students must be able to utilize the software
to solve computationally difficult problems in calculus and other areas of mathematics. At the end of the
course, the students should have a good command on at least two of the three programs mentioned above.

Note: The software to teach for affiliated colleges is Mathemtica to avoid inconvenience in final
examination.
