Oxford Summer College is a two week university preparation course held in the heart of Oxford. The Oxford Summer College M&E programme combines Mathematics and Engineering to create a unique programme that teaches students undergraduate level maths and subsequently shows them how to apply their knowledge to the world around them. Students will get an introduction to matrix algebra and differentiation and also work towards a practical which will involve the creation of a water launcher. After the experiment, students will use their mathematic skills to examine the results from the practical, thus exploring the interdisciplinary relationship between maths and engineering.Topics includeo%09Introduction to matrix algebrao%09Matrix solutions to simultaneous equationso%09Differentiation and differential equationso%09The construction and use of a water launchero%09Particle dynamics when analysing the results of the experimento%09Complex numberso%09De Moivre%E2%80%99s theorem
