About the Course

This course is all about differential equations and covers both theory and applications. In the first five weeks, students will learn about ordinary differential equations, while the sixth week is an introduction to partial differential equations. The course includes 56 concise lecture videos, with a few problems to solve after each lecture. After each major topic, there is a short practice quiz. At the end of each week, there is an assessed quiz. Solutions to the problems and practice quizzes can be found in the instructor-provided lecture notes.

The course materials are well prepared and organised. The teaching style is approachable and clear. I have learned a lot from this course. Thank you so much, and wish you all the best Prof. Chasnov!

Very good course if you want to start using differential equations without any rigorous details. Thanks to professor`s explanation everything is very clear. Good basis to continue to dive deeper.

Great content, covered very well by the teacher. He makes it easy to understand, and you can see this material will prove useful in many applications in the future. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that - as it is often the case on this subject - we were never exhaustive on ways to try and solve the differential equations. For example, a particular ansatz gives us a general solution, OK. But how do we know no other solution exist? Or rather, why don't we try to find different solutions...?

A great course! Although it took me too long to complete it, I believe this was a well rounded and balanced course. I loved the exercises and quizzes after every topic as they really embed what you learn in your mind. What could have been improved is more of modelling real life system like variations of concentration of brine and water tanks filling systems. Thanks Professor Jeffery Chasnov!

Iy's really a good cuorse to learn differential equations, it has certainly focus on the engineers abilities and if you've never seen differential equations, this course will certainly give you the bases.

My only issue is that in some topics is not shown all the process, and many times i ended watching the book and thinking how he ends in that point.

A really good course, I recomend it!

Its a good course for anyone who wants to take a step ahead in field of differential equations after high school. Although, I think that the course could have focused more problem solving assignments or quizzes but nonetheless the course content is self sufficient in introducing new methods and techniques to solve differential equations of different kinds.

I like the course very much but have difficulty in understanding the concept of Diffusion. This course is very relevant not only for the students of science and technology but also for the researchers, teachers and modelers. By attending this course one can model his/her problems on real world and can produce interesting results.

An excellent introduction to differential equations. The course is challenging, but If you are on top of your Calculus, you will be able to handle it. However, if your Calculus is rusty, or nearly lost, then you will need to put a great deal of extra time to follow the lectures and solve the problems.

Very nice course! The topics are well explained.

The only thing I thing should be improved is the last week since the topics are somewhat vaguely explained. This is the only reason why I am rating it with four stars. Otherwise, would've rated it with a five. Good job, Prof. Chasnov!

Great introductory course on differential equations. I enjoyed taking the course, Prof. Jeff has an informal way of getting the point across. Which is a great plus. Some background in calculus is necessary if you want to succeed. All the best.

Excellent course. I would recommend it very highly! The professor starts from the very basics and goes on to tackle highly intricate and interesting problems.

The course is good, the instructor shares contents in a very clear manner. Thanks to coursera for bringing in this course. It is a good add on to our career.
