This module is aimed at university students who are keen to improve and strengthen their knowledge of applied mathematics. It provides a comprehensive overview of the important mathematical concepts and methods needed for a university-level study of physical sciences and engineering. The focus will be on applications of these methods to a variety of real-world problems from physics and mechanics; exploring how mathematicians, their tools and ideas have helped to shape the modern world. Students will be exposed to cutting-edge applications of mathematics, including those based on the teachers' research activities in biomedical engineering. Previous mathematical and physics education will be expected.

This module will consist of a minimum of 45 contact hours with teaching taking place between 9 am and 5 pm from Monday to Friday.
