Homework
Homework will be graded and contribute to your course grade. In addition,
doing the homework should help you explore the concepts covered on the
tests. Your are encouraged to discuss the course material and
homework problems with other classmates, but you should work the
problems on paper on your own - no copying.
Homework assignments must follow the required homework format.
Projects
There will be some individual project type assignments requiring computer modeling. The projects will involve running software to which
you will be given access.
The reports required for these assignments have a separate required project report format.
Late Policy
Homework and project reports must be turned in by the due date/time listed in Canvas to be considered "not late".
Distance Learning students will use Canvas to turn in all assignments (homework and projects) with due dates delayed
by 3 days from the date on the assignment.
Late assignments may be turned in before the Canvas assignment closes, but with a penalty assessed. If unusual circumstances arise that
will prevent you from finishing your assignment on time, please contact the instructor
in advance, so that special consideration can be given.

tentatively scheduled for week of March 1; 2nd midterm tentatively scheduled for week of April 5; and one final exam (open book) scheduled for Wed., May 5, 8:00-10:50 am (according to the registrar's web site).
