GATE Instrumentation Engineering (IN)

The full engineering list — linear algebra, calculus, differential equations, complex variables, probability and statistics, and numerical methods. All seven Engineering Mathematics chapters are on your syllabus, and your Calculus heading also names Fourier series, so read the first section of Transform Theory too. The Laplace and z-transforms in this paper sit under Signals and Systems, which is a discipline section rather than this one. The vector-space chapter is not yours, since this paper’s linear algebra stops at eigenvalues.
