Course details

This course introduces the idea of optimization in a clear and easy way, focusing on how to find the best possible solution to a problem under given conditions. You will first understand what optimization means and why it is important in engineering, science, and real-life decision making. The course explains different types of optimization problems using simple examples. You will learn how to represent problems using mathematical functions and constraints. Static optimization is covered to show how optimal solutions are found at a single point in time. Dynamic optimization is then introduced to handle problems that change over time. The course gradually builds your ability to analyze and solve optimization problems step by step. Emphasis is placed on understanding concepts rather than memorizing formulas. Standard textbooks are used to support learning and provide practice problems. By the end, you will be confident in formulating and solving basic optimization problems.
