Course Overview

Modelling is imperative for understanding a large-scale process’s dynamics. Undertaking the process’s model equations-based virtual experiments, one can optimise operating conditions or/and design the systems efficiently. In most of these practical procedures, model equations deal with numerous parameters, ultimately resulting in partial differential equations (PDEs). The Partial Differential Equations (PDE) For Engineers programme helps candidates obtain holistic knowledge about this.

This four-week course in Partial Differential Equations (PDE) For Engineers: Solution by Separation of Variables by Swayam is an elective programme. Here, students will learn about the various solutions undertaken by process engineers to solve PDEs, including the separation of variables, which is this training’s primary focus. Falling under the ‘Mathematics’ category, this is a PG/UG-tier curriculum.

This training aims to establish solution technique skills among students, helping them become fluent in solving PDEs for various engineering applications. The curriculum also includes an optional Partial Differential Equations (PDE) For Engineers: Solution by Separation of Variables certificate. Interested applicants can obtain this by submitting all their assignments and clearing the course-end test.

Eligibility Criteria

Students with Mathematics’ introductory knowledge are eligible for the Partial Differential Equations (PDE) For Engineers: Solution by Separation of Variables programme.

Certification qualifying details

The Partial Differential Equations (PDE) For Engineers, certification depends on specific criteria. Students must participate in Swayam’s proctored test (offline) and complete all the in-course assessments. These will determine the candidate’s final programme score.

75% of his/her offline examination score upon 100 will be considered for the final marks. Here, a 30/75 marking or more is compulsory.

25% of his/her top-scoring three assignments (amongst the four) will be evaluated for the student’s final score. Here, at least 10/25 is mandatory.

By fulfilling these markings, the candidate will obtain a final score of 40/100 or higher, granting them the Partial Differential Equations (PDE) For Engineers: Solution by Separation of Variables certificate. However, if they acquire 40 or more without fulfilling the specified criteria, Swayam will not provide the e-certificate.
