Learner Reviews & Feedback for Differential Equations for Engineers by The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology
About the Course
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. Download the lecture

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!

The professor is really good at teaching. Examples are easy to understand. Practices are not very hard but require some effort and need you to understand the concepts and methods. Great experience!

I give it four stars. Pros: Overall, the course is very good! meaning that, it provides a good route map to navigate through this domain of math with connection to engineering. It is fundamentally free with a concise lecture note. Cons: Some steps goes through too quickly assuming the students are quite capable of auto-grasping / calculating / processing the information. So it really takes some efforts to follow the course rigorously while also grasping the math thinking. Suggest: I found deepseek and chatgpt to be extremely useful that they can answer my pin-point pain-in-the-S problems. That really helps in clarifying my misunderstanding and they barely made mistakes (R1 and O1). So I suggest the cousera or the teacher to somehow integrate these as standard learning tools. Not to mention that, deepseek is even free now. Delivering best wishes and gratitudes to course maker Jeffrey R. Chasnov.

A nice introduction to DE, but not the same as taking it in a face-to-face class obviously. You only get out of a course what you put into it and without larger homework sets, you just don't get a large amount out. Of course, if you took the class face-to-face, along with larger homework sets, you'd have interactions with other students and office-hours with the professor. I don't think you could make it better by just making the homework sets larger. Two things are nice, though, compared to an average coursea course. I took this course independently, but (1) the instructor replied to a question within 24 hours, so he is still monitoring the course and (2) the course pings you if you don't do one assignment a week.

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!
