The Memorial University of Newfoundland Code
“All members of the Memorial University of Newfoundland Community, which includes students, faculty, and staff, shall treat others with respect and fairness, be responsible and honest, and uphold the highest standards of academic integrity.”
Statement of Expectations of Student Conduct
“Like Professional Engineers, engineering students are expected to behave in a professional manner at all times. Students are encouraged to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with the PEG-NL code of ethics. MUN has two sets of rules which deal with inappropriate behaviour by students. The first set deals with academic offences such as cheating while the other set deals with non-academic offences such as disruptive behaviour in class. Both sets of rules can be found in the University Calendar under Regulations. It is strongly recommended that students read and follow these rules because the penalties can be severe, the severest being expulsion from the University.”

Quizzes (best 4 of 5): | 25 % | |
Mid term test: | 30 % | |
Final examination: | 45 % |
Problem sets give you some much needed practice in the methods of calculus and enhance your chances of success in tests and the final examination, so it is important that you attempt all problem set questions yourself. The questions will be posted on the Web site only. The solutions will be placed on the Web site shortly after the relevant tutorial.
The five quizzes will each be a single question, taking 15 minutes during a lecture period on alternate Thursdays, on Sep. 23, Oct. 07, Oct. 21, Nov. 04 and Nov. 18. The quizzes will be conducted remotely, through Brightspace. No deferred quizzes will be offered.
The mid term test is scheduled for Wednesday October 13 (the University follows the Monday timetable on that day). Due to a lack of sufficient space in EN 2006, the mid term test will take place in the evening, 19:00-20:00 (7 pm to 8pm). Questions for the mid term test may be drawn from Chapters 1 or 2 (problem sets 1-4). No deferred tests will be offered.
Marked quizzes will be returned through Brightspace and marked tests will be returned in a tutorial.
You may need a calculator for all quizzes, the test and the final examination. See the calculator policy for details on which calculators are permitted.
One 8½"×11" formula sheet of your
own design (with writing and/or printing on both sides) will be
allowed for the mid term test and two such sheets will be
allowed in the final examination.
You may also construct a formula sheet for each quiz.
However,
do not consult with any other person and do not use
any internet resources during any quiz, test or examination.
The work that you submit must be your own, alone.
The final examination will cover the entire course. Where it is in an individual student’s favour, the weighting of the final examination for that student may be increased beyond 45%. It is the student’s responsibility to locate the time and place of the final examination. The Faculty’s examination policies are available from links on the undergraduate policies web page.
All lectures will be conducted remotely, through Brightspace.
The lecture class will be divided into five parallel tutorial sections,
allocated by major:
Computer, Mondays at 11:00 in EN 1054
Electrical, Wednesdays at 14:00 (2 pm) in EN 1000 (starting Sep. 15)
Process, Wednesdays at 16:00 (4 pm) in EN 1000 (starting Sep. 15);
Mechanical, Tuesdays at 11:00 in EN 2006 - except for those students whose
laboratory class in ME 3101 or ME 3911 is at that time, in which case
Mondays at 17:00 (5 pm) in EN 2043.
There are no tutorials in the first week of classes (Sep. 08-10).
There are no tutorials in the week of the mid semester break (Oct. 11-15).
The lecture notes for ENGI 3424 are available as PDF
files from the Lecture Notes section of the course web site
http://www.engr.mun.ca/~ggeorge/3424/handout/
“Lecture Notes for ENGI 3424 Engineering Mathematics” by G.H. George
and as a paper copy from the University Bookstore.
You will need to bring these notes to every class.
There are strategically placed gaps that will be filled in during
the lectures.
No one commercial textbook is required for this course. You may wish to invest in a reference text that bears the title “Advanced Engineering Mathematics” (such as the textbooks by P.V. O’Neil or D.G. Zill) or in cheaper “outline series” books such as the Schaum’s outline series. These books can be used again in a future course such as ENGI 4430.
