Derivation of differential equations from primitive, geometry, physics, etc. order and degree of a differential equation. Techniques for solving first and second-order linear and non-linear equations. Solutions of systems of first-order linear equations. Finite linear difference equations. Application to geometry and physics. ICT 298: Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme (3 Units C: PH 135) Students are attached to private and public organisations for a period of three months with a view to making them acquire practical experience and to the extent possible, develop skills in all areas of ICT. Students are supervised during the training period and shall be expected to keep records designed for the purpose of monitoring their performance. They are also expected to submit a report on the experience gained and defend their reports.
