N2 - Viscoelasticity course is very math intensive course and the concepts could appear abstract leading students to lose interest. The comments, especially from the undergraduate students almost, unanimously state that the content was very difficult. The instructor anticipated this problem and therefore developed an outline so that the latter half the course could focus on applications of the theory so that the students can get an appreciation of what was learnt in the classroom.
