Introduces commonly used approximation methods in quantum mechanics. They include time-independent perturbation theory, time-dependent perturbation theory, tight binding method, variational method and the use of finite basis set. In each case, a specific example is given to clearly show how the method works. Recommended restriction: Knowledge of undergraduate-level differential equations and linear algebra.
