The professor who teaches the course is an applied mathematician who actually does this stuff - so I am excited and delighted to learn.I am intent on studying alongside work. To manage the workload better, my strategy is to learn the core courses ahead of time. The ones I have begun reading-up on my own are - mathematical programming(optimization), applied functional analysis and applied PDEs. I had a couple of questions -1. I am going to use Strauss for linear PDEs, as it appears to give a clear presentation. For non-linear, my colleague recommended: <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Nonlinear-Partial-Differential-Equations/dp/0470225955" target="_blank">An Introduction to Non-Linear Partial Differential Equations,  Logan</a>. Are these okay for an applied course in PDEs? Any recommendations for numerics are welcome.2. I'd like to do a PDE-based project. Any tips on where I should look for project ideas?Thanks so much,Quasar.</blockquote>
