This unit will give a taster to some topics in modern applied mathematics which we feel every budding systems engineer should know about. The teaching will be delivered in one full-time week, with a different topic on each day, tentative titles as follows: 1. Introduction to Matlab Simulation Environment. 2. Nonlinearity: the science of systems where outputs are not proportional to inputs. 3. How to Explore Parameter Space. 4. Information from Data. 5. Autonomous Systems and Emergent Behaviour.
