    The document outlines the course plan for a Finite Element Methods course. The course is divided into 5 units that cover: [1] introduction and basic concepts of FEM; [2] one-dimensional problems; [3] analysis of trusses and beams; [4] two-dimensional structural problems using isoparametric elements; and [5] analysis of heat transfer and dynamic problems. The course will teach students how to set up and solve finite element models using bar, beam, truss, and isoparametric elements. Recommended textbooks and references are also provided.
