Course objectives:
● To acquaint the students with differential equations and their applications in
Electrical & Electronics engineering.
● To find the association between attributes and the correlation between two variables
● Learn to use the Fourier series to represent periodical physical phenomena in
engineering analysis and to enable the student to express non-periodic functions to
periodic functions using the Fourier series and Fourier transforms.
● To learn the basic ideas of the theory of probability and random signals.
Teaching-Learning Process
Pedagogy (General Instructions):
These are sample Strategies, teachers can use to accelerate the attainment of the various
course
outcomes.
1. In addition to the traditional lecture method, different types of innovative teaching
methods may be adopted so that the delivered lessons shall develop students’ theoretical
and applied Mathematical skills.
2. State the need for Mathematics with Engineering Studies and Provide real-life examples.
3. Support and guide the students for self–study.
4. You will assign homework, grading assignments and quizzes, and documenting students'
progress.
5. Encourage the students to group learning to improve their creative and analytical skills.
6. Show short related video lectures in the following ways:
● As an introduction to new topics (pre-lecture activity).
● As a revision of topics (post-lecture activity).
● As additional examples (post-lecture activity).
● As an additional material of challenging topics (pre-and post-lecture activity).
● As a model solution of some exercises (post-lecture activity).

statistical data
3. Demonstrate the Fourier series to study the behaviour of periodic functions and their
applications in system communications, digital signal processing, and field theory.

probability models arising in the engineering field. Demonstrate the validity of
testing the hypothesis.

Assessment Details (both CIE and SEE)
The weightage of Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) is 50% and for Semester End Exam
(SEE) is 50%. The minimum passing mark for the CIE is 40% of the maximum marks (20 marks
out of 50) and for the SEE minimum passing mark is 35% of the maximum marks (18 out of 50
marks). The student is declared as a pass in the course if he/she secures a minimum of 40% (40
marks out of 100) in the sum total of the CIE (Continuous Internal Evaluation) and SEE (Semester
End Examination) taken together.
Continuous Internal Evaluation:
● There are 25 marks for the CIE's Assignment component and 25 for the Internal Assessment
Test component.
● Each test shall be conducted for 25 marks. The first test will be administered after 40-50% of
the coverage of the syllabus, and the second test will be administered after 85-90% of the
coverage of the syllabus. The average of the two tests shall be scaled down to 25 marks
● Any two assignment methods mentioned in the 22OB2.4, if an assignment is project-based
then only one assignment for the course shall be planned. The schedule for assignments
shall be planned properly by the course teacher. The teacher should not conduct two
assignments at the end of the semester if two assignments are planned. Each assignment
shall be conducted for 25 marks. (If two assignments are conducted then the sum of the two
assignments shall be scaled down to 25 marks)
● The final CIE marks of the course out of 50 will be the sum of the scale-down marks of tests
and assignment/s marks.
Internal Assessment Test question paper is designed to attain the different levels of Bloom’s
taxonomy as per the outcome defined for the course.

Semester-End Examination:
Theory SEE will be conducted by University as per the scheduled timetable, with common
question papers for the course (duration 03 hours).
1. The question paper will have ten questions. Each question is set for 20 marks.
2. There will be 2 questions from each module. Each of the two questions under a module (with
a maximum of 3 sub-questions), should have a mix of topics under that module.
3. The students have to answer 5 full questions, selecting one full question from each module.
4. Marks scored shall be proportionally reduced to 50 marks.
