| Content | Detailed Description |
| Course Objectives | This course provides students with high performance computational tools necessary to investigate problems arising in science and engineering with an emphasis on combining them to accomplish more complex tasks. A combination of lectures and lab work will provide the proper blend of theory and practice. Problems to be investigated will be culled from the applied sciences. |
| Attendance | Students are required to attend all classes with the exception of sickness and scientific conferences. Students, not the professor, are then responsible for bringing themselves up to date both on subject matter and other decisions, homework projects, etc. that may have been given in class. Information given in class supplants information provided on the course web site. |
| Courtesy | You should get to class on time, and remain until class is dismissed. If you must leave class early, please let the instructor know before class begins. |
| Grading | Homework assignments will count for 50 percent of the total grade. The lab reports will count for another 50 percent of the grade. There will be no curving. |
| Exam Policy | There will be weekly homeworks that will count 50 percent towards the final grade. The lab work will count for another 50 percent. There will be six labs. Each lab will culminate in a written report by the student, complete with summary, introduction, solution, results, tables, figures, and conclusions. Each lab report is due one week past the end of the particular lab sequence. There will be no grade curving. |
| Test Dates | There will no midtern or final exams. Instructors reserve the right
to give impromptu quizzes. |
| Honor Code | The Academic Honor System of The Florida State University is based on the premise that each student has the responsibility 1) to uphold the highest standards of academic integrity in the student's own work, 2) to refuse to tolerate violations of academic integrity in the University community, and 3) to foster a high sense of integrity and social responsibility on the part of the University community. Please note that violations of this Academic Honor System will not be tolerated in this class. Specifically, incidents of plagiarism of any type or referring to any unauthorized material during examinations will be rigorously pursued by this instructor. Before submitting any work for this class, please read the ``Academic Honor System" in its entirety (as found in the FSU General Bulletin and in the FSU Student Handbook and ask the instructor to clarify any of its expectations that you do not understand. |
| Americans with Disabilities Act | Students with disabilities needing academic accommodations should: 1) register with and provide documentation to the Student Disability Resource Center (SDRC); 2) bring a letter to the instructor from SDRC indicating you need academic accommodations. This should be done within the first week of class. This and other class materials are available in alternative format upon request. |
