Learning outcomes The main objective of this course is to develop in students the skills necessary to numerically solve problems involving differential equations with boundary values and partial derivatives, and to analyze and interpret the solutions thus obtained. In particular, it is intended that students acquire the theoretical and practical foundations related to finite difference methods, Galerkin and finite element method.

At the end of this course the student should be able to:
- Identify and apply numerical methods appropriate to the problem under study;
- Know the main advantages and disadvantages of the numerical schemes studied;
- Study the consistency and stability of a numerical scheme;
- Computationally implement the different numerical methods.
