Differential Equations Online Course - Fast Academic Credits!

A popular course for taking online, our Differential Equations course utlizes a modern Differential Equations approach - we forget most of the paper and pencil classical technique - and instead use the modern Calculus&Mathematica curriculum - looking at differential equations for what they mean - not how to solve the (rather trivial) cases you can do by hand. Mathematica is a very powerful tool to obtain the solution of any differential equation (if there is one!), and so ... what does the solution mean? How do you interpret the solution? What does the solution's graph mean? What if there are slight changes to the differential equation? What is a driver? An Oscillator?

This modern approach to Differential Equations is a superior approach for data science, physics, economics, and all branches of science that use mathematics (i.e. all of science!).

Course was good and fast. I don't like math so I can't say it was fun or anything. Grader was very nice. Software was ok.

Nothing but praise for Dr. Curtis. He's an excellent professor who is very responsive and knowledgeable. I did this course at night while working full-time, and I often skyped him late in the evening with questions. He never took long to respond, regardless of when it was. I finished this course in about a month and a half, and I worked for it. For those looking for an easy A, this is not it. You will have to put in serious work, but you will come out of the course with a good understanding of the material, especially if you apply yourself throughout the entirety of the course.

After two failed attempts at my university, this course helped me understand Calculus. The live maths tool along with Dr. Curtis were especially helpful, allowing me to visualize concepts and expand my understanding. The explanations were clear, the examples practical, and I could learn at my own pace, which built my confidence. Thank you.
