Free Online Course: Computational Science and Engineering using Python provided by Swayam is a comprehensive online course, which lasts for 8 weeks long. The course is taught in English and is free of charge. Upon completion of the course, you can receive an e-certificate from Swayam.

Overview
  • Computing has become a major tool in science and engineering so much so that it is called the third pillar along with experiments and theory.  In this course, we first introduce Python programming language.  Then we cover basic numerical algorithms covering interpolation, integration, differentiation, ODE and PDE solvers, and basic linear algebra. Python implementation of these algorithms will be covered.

Syllabus
  • Week 1:  About computers, Python: Variables and Array
    Week 2: Python: Control structures, Programming style, and Plotting
    Week 3: Errors, Data input/output, Interpolation
    Week 4: Numerical integration and differentiation
    Week 5: ODE solvers,  Fourier transforms
    Week 6: PDE solvers, Linear Algebra
