Engineering Mathematics is a whole new concept of mathematics that is exclusively relevant and useful in engineering processes and hence right application of equations demands great level of importance. Students are taught sums that are based on calculus, linear algebra, complex variables, vector calculus, differential equations (partial and ordinary), probability, statistics and other numerical methods. This is regarded as the most important section and hence a compulsory part of the academic syllabus. The inspection of the elements contained in each of the topics provides a deeper insight into the areas and enlightens students about the different types of matrices like symmetric, orthogonal, skew-symmetric, Hermitian, unitary matrices and related theorems. Calculus involves continuity and differentiability, definite and improper integrals, beta and gamma functions and maxima and minima. Analytic functions and Cauchy-Riemann equations are done in complex variables while vector identities and gradients are done in vector calculus. These are used to solve potential problems.
