MA 350Partial Differential Equations (3,0)3 Credits

Physical models leading to partial differential equa-tions. Fourier series and Fourier transforms. Solutionof linear partial differential equations, including solu-tions of the wave, heat and Laplaces equation.

Prerequisite: MA 345.

MA 444Scientific Visualization (3,0)3 Credits

Scientific visualization is the representation of datagraphically as a means of gaining understandingand insight into the data. This course will introducedifferent aspects of scientific visualization: computergraphics and related mathematics concepts, applica-

tion packages for interactive display and analysis ofdata.

Prerequisites: CS 315 and CS 344.

MA 453High Performance Scientific Computing (3,0)3 Credits

This course is an introduction to parallel comput-ing in computational mathematics and scienceswith practical applications. We start with an over-view of parallel computing and study the problemof program efficiency on parallel computers. Thenwe introduce two major programming paradigms:shared memory and message passing. The last third

of the course will focus on applications of parallelcomputing in the sciences (Engineering, Physics,Mathematics, etc.).

Prerequisites: CS 375 and MA 432.

MA 488Numerical Methods in Fluids (3,0)3 Credits

This course explores the theory and applications ofnumerical methods in fluid mechanics. The topicscovered will include numerical methods for incom-pressible flows; primative variable and vorticity-stream function on formulation; numerical treatmentfor inviscid and viscous flows, including restrictedto incompressible flow. Emphasis will be placed onnumerical methods based on finite difference, finitevolume, or finite element formulations.

Prerequisite: MA 350 and WX 201.

Corequisite: ES 312.

MA 490Capstone Project (1,6)3 Credits

This course is focused on the development of a func-tioning software product as it applies to a computa-tional problem in the area of aviation and aerospace.Also, material on business practices, professionalpractices, and ethics is included. Students, workingin teams, are involved in management and planning,analysis and specification, design, implementation,and testing of a software system. Project work isassessed using modern industrial software standardsand review techniques. Laboratory work includesteam building, project reports, walk-throughs andinspections, design activities, process analysis, andacceptance tests.

Prerequisites: SE 300, MA 444 or MA 453.

Academic Warning, Probation,Suspension, and Dismissal

WarningA student whose cumulative grade pointaverage (CGPA) is less than 2.00 for oneterm is placed on academic warning.Probation

A student whose CGPA is less than2.00 for two consecutive terms is placedon academic probation. Students on warn-ing or probation are classified as stu-dents not in good standing and may not

serve as elected members of the StudentGovernment Association, may not partici-pate in intercollegiate athletics as membersof a University team, may not serve onthe editorial staff of a campus publica-tion, and will lose eligibility for financialaid programs. The academic programs ofstudents on warning or probation may berestricted. Students who are placed on aca-demic probation will be allowed to com-plete any flight course in which they are

currently enrolled. However, they will notbe allowed to enroll in subsequent flightcourses until they return to good aca-demic standing. A student who has a termGPA of less than 1.00 may also be placedon academic probation or suspension inaccordance with University academic poli-cies.

SuspensionA student whose CGPA is less than 2.00

for three consecutive terms, or a studenton academic probation whose CGPA atthe end of the subsequent period is below2.00, is suspended from the Universityunless the student maintains a term GPAgreater than 2.00.A student who has a term GPA of less than1.00 may be suspended or placed on aca-demic probation.

DismissalA student who has been suspended andreadmitted is on probationary statusuntil the CGPA has been raised to 2.00.If the term GPA falls below 2.00 duringthe probationary period, the student isdismissed. Any previously suspendedstudent who has been restored to goodstanding but whose academic performancesubsequently deteriorates to a level thatwould qualify for initial suspension is dis-missed. Academic dismissal is final andthe student will not be readmitted to theUniversity.

When a change of grade or the conver-sion of the grade I changes a students aca-demic status, the previous academic statusof warning, probation, or suspension isremoved and does not become part of thestudents permanent record.
