Do you---as an engineer---sometimes consult pure-math papers or textbooks in the hope of deriving insight into a puzzling mathematical challenge, only to be stymied by an impenetrable wall of jargon such as short exact sequences and functoriality?
Do you---as a physicist---need to know what things like cohomology and p-forms are, but can't learn from pure-math textbooks because of the dense thicket of abstract terminology and concepts lying between the title page and the interesting content?
Or do you---as an applied or numerical mathematician---simply wonder what your pure-math colleagues are doing down the corridor all day?
If so, this is the course for you!
