Welcome to my class!

This webpage is designed for students who are taking this course from me (Tran Huu Dung) at Wright State University. If you are not one of my students, this page is not for you. I do have some stuff that might be of interest to visitors, please click here to go to the main gate to my homepage, and navigate from there.

If this is the first time you are taking a course with me, please send me an email ASAP to introduce yourself (your name, major, aspiration, and anything you care to tell me). The more I know about you, the better I can tailor the course to your background and your needs.

Visit this page as often as you can (it's a good idea to bookmark it), I'll update it at least once a week.

See you in class!
