RATIONAL METHODS FOR SOLVING ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

Dr. Zanariah Abdul Majid received her BA in Mathematics from Macalaster College, Minnesota, USA in 1986, MA in Mathematics from Eastern Michigan University, USA in 1988, Diploma Education in Mathematics from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia in 1990 and PhD in Applied Mathematics from Universiti Putra Malaysia in 2004. She began her teaching career in 1990 as a teacher in secondary school. Six years later, she joined the Teacher’s Training College as a lecturer in Department of Mathematics. She has retired as academic lecturer and currently as Amal Putra at Faculty Science, Universiti Putra Malaysia. She is a life member of the Malaysian Mathematical Sciences Society. She won several awards and gold medals with her hard work and distinguished efforts in research at international and national level. She has published more than 150 papers in the area of numerical analysis. Her research interest focus on multistep method and one-step method for solving higher order ordinary differential equations, boundary value problem, delay differential equations, volterra-integro differential equations, fredholm-integro differential equations and fuzzy differential equations.
