Of the core courses, linear analysis
is the one we think should definitely be taken. Which other core courses are
taken and which year depend on the interests of the students and the direction
they plan to go in. Above we recommend taking Complex the first year and then
starting both Real Variable and Manifolds the second year, and continuing with
at least one of them through the year. Many variations are possible.
Some students might want to take optimization earlier, or take less PDE's, depending on interests. Functional analysis is recommended for students interested in theoretical aspects of numerical analysis. Other students might want to take courses in particular applications such as fluid mechanics.
