Summer Math Refresher

This non-credit course taught by current Joint Program students is a review of mathematical methods that are commonly used in oceanography and engineering. Mathematical methods and techniques commonly encountered by first-year students in the Joint Program will be covered. Each session focuses on a specific topic, and it is expected that students will choose to attend the sessions that are most relevant to their course selections and research.

The course syllabus is typically posted in June (here; you can also see examples from previous years). The course is taught at WHOI. In recent years, there has been an option for Zoom-based participation.
