My Courses

I have a text on Numerical Analysis for Engineering.

Here are some on-line lectures:

I have taught the following courses in the last five years:

  • ECE 150
  • ECE 204
  • NE 112
  • ECE 250
  • MTE 241
  • ECE 204A
  • ECE 204B

I do not take graduate students.

Sometimes, you're in the right place, at the right time, with the right knowledge to wave at the Street View camera.

Associated with the numerical methods courses are a collection of Maplets (java applets powered by Maple) hosted on freedom.uwaterloo.ca.

Other Interests/Useful Links

For anyone using Microsoft Equation, there is a font better than Cambria Math that you can install that is not the default. See Latin Modern Math. To make Latin Modern Math the default, select the popout window at the bottom right of the box Equation Tools→Design→Tools and change the default font for Math Regions.
