5Description: A collection of math problems based on skills needed to successfully complete homework problems in an introductory course in Transport Phenomena.  These problems do not introduce any new material for those who have taken Freshman Calculus classes and a sophomore level Differential Equations class.  At Purdue University in the required Transport Phenomena course for MSE undergrads (MSE 340), I give a problem set like this the first day of classes in order to make clear the level of mathematical skill needed for the rest of the semester.  I have found that it reduces difficulties with math later in the semester, allowing the students to focus on the transport phenomena.
