The Department of Engineering Sciences and Applied Mathematics (ESAM) at Northwestern University is highly interdisciplinary and focused on applications. Our faculty and students connect with ...

Fourier analysis and numerical methods have long played a pivotal role in the solution of differential equations across science and engineering. By decomposing complex functions into sums of ...

Use mathematics to solve engineering challenges. Are you a civil engineer interested in risk-management models? Or an electrical engineer wanting to dig into the complicated mathematics of circuits?

This is a core course that provides key mathematical tools for modelling and analysing engineering problems. These tools represent a balance of stochastic and deterministic modelling approaches along ...

This unit is a hands-on introduction to the industry-standard computer package Matlab, and also to the practical implementation of numerical methods and their application to real-world problems. From ...

Numerical analysis is the branch of mathematics devoted to the study of algorithms for the approximate solution of problems that often have no closed‐form answer. At its core, numerical analysis seeks ...
