Course Practice Problems
All students are expected to solve the problems below on their own, during the course of the semester. Each problem-set below pertains to its corresponding course chapter, and should be completed within one week of that chapter’s completion date, as per the table above. These problems are not all to be graded, but the midterm will consist of my scoring some of the submitted problems at random (which, will not be preannounced) on a given date.

Course Rules of Engagement

  • You may discuss with me your grades, but not my grading scheme.

  • No grade “curving” applies.

  • If any submission is late, the score earned on it will be halved. No exceptions.

  • Reports are all to be typeset and structured according to professional engineering standards.

    • Incorrect use of language, formatting, citation, etc. will all affect your score.

  • Class meeting attendance is expected, but attendance is not routinely taken.

  • Disability Accommodation: any student with a proven special need should submit an official document to that effect from the Student Well-being Department before the end of September.

  • AUC’s Code of Academic Integrity will be enforced:
