Engineering Physics, 3rd year mmm... Solid State Physics Strength of Materials and Solid Mechanics 3rd year Degree Project in Engineering Physics, specialization in Theoretical Physics I will also be a teaching assistant for 1st year students in Multivariable Calculus of which I'm...

Due to a transition between programs I will be studying quite a bit this fall (complementary courses). During the summer I will prepare for the fall... Fall 2012: Linear Algebra (shorter complentary course from LA I) Calculus (shorter complementary course from Calculus I, II and III)...

Mathematics are to be studied with afterthought and with peace of mind. Always make sure you're in a silent and comforting surrounding when studying anything really, although especially mathematics. In a more subjective sense, I've never experienced any benefits of studying in groups while...

Which direction would be most favourable for a physicist to take? I am in a similar position as the OP. Also, could someone recommend a beginners/an introductory book in abstract algebra, i.e. an abstract algebra book for people who have just finished linear algebra? Thanks in advance.

Most universities expect more of a mathematical background from students then what the students actually learn in high school. Our school even had a lecture in the first weeks of the first term which main point was to tell us that we probably were badly prepared in terms of mathematical...

Never try to read faster. Reading speed will come by time. The biggest mistake you can do while trying to read faster is to overlook a concept, sentence or even a word. This is the cause to the "I've-read-the-whole-page-but-I-can't-remember-anything"-syndrome. Once you overlooked a word that you...

Hmm oh well, Numerical Methods II Linear Algebra cont'd Multivariable Calculus Mechanics I Mathematical Modelling/Being an Engineer Yup, still a freshman.

There are thousands of undergraduate textbooks in all of those subjects. You'll need to specify your question/whatever further.

Perhaps you'd like Nanotech? It's hard to pinpoint any colleges that excel in that particular subject if one doesn't know where (geographically) you're most likely to study... I could tell you that Lund University in Sweden do have forefront research on Nanotechnology but I guess you're not from...
