Hey Veeky Forums.

I have a slot for one math course next term, my options are: "Complex Analysis" or "Fourier Methods". I was wondering, which one would allow me to understand more concepts in phsyics?

Also, if someone understands both of them, which do you like more? I'm not a physics major btw I'm in an unrelated engineering, so I would be taking either just for fun.

Bump for interest.

My guess is complex analysis cause everything Fourier can be learned in a weekend.

Complex analysis will probably be better as it gets you to the exponential wave form, fourier methods is mainly to solve partial differential equations

What is unrelated engineering?

If its anything electrical then Fourier for sure.

i vote for complex

Geotechnical, I think in america I would be a civil student.

I believe in you OP! You can do both!

Both are important. It depends on what you specialize in.

go for complex phal

depends on where you are from, people from certain places can be very uncivil
