Higher Engineering Mathematics finds its application in most of the subjects in the course of Engineering. The topics which are taught to the students during their 1st and 2nd year of study are very much helpful in third and fourth year its applications are used to solve many problems. Topics like Lagrangian, graph theory, interpolation, gamma functions, Laplace Transforms, Fourier transforms, statistics etc are used for solving higher order problems.

Various Topics covered in this paper

The topics which are to be studied in this paper are derivatives of functions, higher order differentiation, integration, Legendre Polynomials, Fourier series and Fourier Transforms, Laplace Transforms, Cauchy Euler Equation, Beta Gamma Functions, Bernoulli’s equation, Jacobian, Bessels’s equation, differential equations etc.
