Course Description
Mathematics for Engineers is a course which introduces some
mathematical tools for solving and analyzing the problems arising
in the mathematical modeling in engineering. A specified
differential equation endeavors to match the known features of the
application being modeled, as well as to be able to predict the
systems' behavior in other circumstances. The course integrates
theory and application using a problem-based approach. This course
prepares the students for future learning in relation to problem
solving and decision-making, technical competence, teamwork and
leadership.

Instructions for the students
� Attendance: According to the University of Qatar policy, a student has to
attend more than 75 % of the lectures; otherwise the student will not be
able to enter the final exam and consequently can not pass this course.
� Only a limited use of calculators is allowed in the examinations.
� Of course, cell phones must not be used during the classes and the
examinations.
� The final exam is comprehensive.
� Possibly three quizzes and assignments will be given.
� Assignments are to be returned on time. Late submission will result in
loss of marks.
� Marks are awarded on the basis of both presentation and concept.
� Homework/Practice Problems will be assigned by the instructor, and
students are strongly urged to solve much more problems than indicated by
the instructor.

Learning Activities and Tasks
Students are responsible for their own ongoing learning process. They need to do their
assignments independently unless they are allowed to work in groups.
Course Regulations
Student Responsibilities and Attendance Policies and Procedures


Class attendance is compulsory. In accordance with University regulations, a
student’s absence cannot exceed 25% of the total number (entire semester)
of class meetings. If your absence rate exceeds 25%, including both
excused and unexcused absences, you will NOT be allowed to take the final
examination and will receive an ‘F barred’ grade for the course.
Students are expected to be punctual (every 3 late class arrivals will be counted
as 1 class absence) in class attendance and to conduct themselves in an adult
and professional manner.

Homework assignments and library assignment should be worked
independently. Exchanging ideas are permitted orally but don't require any
kind of copying.

Homework assignment should be submitted in organized way and any late
assignments may be assessed and corrected but the grade will be zero.
Plagiarism (Academic Dishonesty)

All students are expected to turn in work that is their own. Any attempt to
pass off another's work as your own will constitute an "F" in the entire
course.
 Using part of, or the entire work, prepared by another or turning in a
homework assignment prepared by another student or party are examples of
plagiarism.
 You may discuss assignments and projects with each other, but you should
do the work yourself. In the case of group projects, you will be expected to
do your share of the work. If you use someone else's words or ideas, you
must cite your sources.
Plagiarism is considered a serious academic offence and can result in your work losing
marks or being failed. QU expects its students to adopt and abide by the highest standards of
conduct in their interaction with their professors, peers, and the wider University community.
As such, a student is expected not to engage in behaviours that compromise his/her own
integrity as well as that of QU. You may discuss assignments and projects with each other, but
you should do the work yourself. In the case of group projects, you will be expected to do your
share of the work. If you use someone else's words or ideas, you must cite your sources.
Plagiarism includes the following examples and it applies to all student assignments or
submitted work:

permission.
Use of someone else's wording, name, phrase, sentence, paragraph or essay
without using quotation marks.

The instructor has the right to fail the coursework or deduct marks where plagiarism is
detected

Practice Problems
"Practice makes a man perfect" is a well-known saying. It is particularly true for
mathematics students. Following are the Recommended Practice Problems from the text book.
It is expected that the students will solve all of them, but shall not restrict themselves to these
problems only.

Some general instructions for the students
� Feel free to ask any question related to the material presented in the class during the
class time.
� Check blackboard site http://mybb.qu.edu.qa for announcements and some class
material like class notes, assignments, syllabus, assignments and exams solutions, etc.
� Only a limited use of calculators is allowed in the examinations.
� Of course, cell phones must not be used during the class and the
examinations.
� Homework Problems will be assigned by the instructor, and students are strongly
urged to solve much more problems than indicated by the instructor.
� Mathematics Department provides syllabi very close to the ones of the most
international universities. Deducting and cutting short this syllabus is impossible and
the students should understand this in advance.
