Overview

This text is intended for the undergraduate course in math methods, with an audience of physics and engineering majors. As a required course in most departments, the text relies heavily on explained examples, real-world applications and student engagement. Supporting the use of active learning, a strong focus is placed upon physical motivation combined with a versatile coverage of topics that can be used as a reference after students complete the course. Each chapter begins with an overview that includes a list of prerequisite knowledge, a list of skills that will be covered in the chapter, and an outline of the sections. Next comes the motivating exercise, which steps the students through a real-world physical problem that requires the techniques taught in each chapter.

[Mathematical Methods in Engineering and Physics] is my book of choice for teaching undergraduates...I honestly never thought that I could be so enchanted by the heat equation before seeing how Felder and Felder effectively have students derive it as part of honing their intuition for how to think about partial differential equations. - Christine Aidala, PhD, Associate Professor of Physics at University of Michigan for the American Journal of Physics
