Course Overview

The Functional Analysis certification course is a postgraduate level programme in the field of mathematics. The online course mainly focuses on learning partial differential equations with a modern perspective in addition to other topics. The course covers all the fundamental and important theorems, normed linear spaces, and weak topology, etc. The course would be perfect for those candidates who are pre equipped with the information of basic linear algebra and topology.  The course deals with 12 different topics that are covered every week.

Candidates who would want to pursue this Functional Analysis online course will get to collect information on linear transformations, different theorems, reflexivity, some practical examples, etc. Candidates would be offered a certificate at the end of the course if they choose to pay for the exam fees and qualify for the exam with passing grades. Candidates can take up this course at any time and there is no rush to complete the Functional Analysis certification syllabus since it is a self-paced online course. The course is provided by IIT, Madras and mentored by the faculty member of the Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Chennai.
