There is no rigid schedule.  Due dates for homework and projects will be announced in class.

 

You are encouraged to form study groups.

 

Projects may be done and written up as a group, but no more than 4 people per group.

Each one must learn and practice enough MATLAB to be able to use it on the final exam, so if you do projects as a group, please help each other so that each one of you understands all the concepts and can do all the MATLAB programming.

 

There will be a Midterm Exam and a Final Exam
