Course Objectives	This course is designed to enrich the knowledge of mathematics students in differential equations after calculus. As a replacement and enlargement of currently given Math 262 Differential Equations course, it is intended to present the subject being motivated from the basic mathematical concepts such as differentiation, integration, power series and to include further applications related to differential equations mostly used in mathematical problems.
Course Learning Outcomes	The students who succeeded in this course; be able to determine the existence and uniqueness of a solution and select the appropriate method for finding the solution. use appropriate methods for solution of first, second and higher order ODE’s. express physical laws in the language of differential equations. solve these equations by modern techniques and interpret his results in terms of the original problem. solve differential equations using power series and Laplace transform methods. solve linear systems of differential equations by elimination and Laplace transform methods.
Course Content	First-order, higher-order linear ordinary differential equations, applications of first-order differential equations, series solutions of differential equations, Laplace transforms, linear systems of ordinary differential equations.
