From one degree of freedom to continuous systems, with modal analysis in the middle. It is the course that turns "the machine shakes" into a number you can design against.

We also write the summaries.
This map tells you what a course contains. The summaries, the tutoring and the people who already took it are the part you get by joining.
The topic outlines are not official syllabi. The university publishes a catalogue blurb per course, not lecture-by-lecture material, so each outline describes what a course of that name, at those hours, with those prerequisites teaches at engineering schools generally, cross-checked against the standard textbook for the subject. Treat it as an informed map, not as a transcript of the lectures.
