Description

Objective:

By the end of this course, you will be able to apply fundamental concepts of linear algebra, including vector spaces, linear transformations, determinants, and eigenvalues, to solve mathematical problems, construct proofs, and analyze real-world applications in engineering, computer science, and related fields.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Solve linear systems using Gaussian elimination.
  • Apply linear algebra to modeling data.
  • Classify transformations as one-to-one or onto.
  • Represent linear transformations using matrices.
  • Analyze reduced row echelon form of matrices.
  • Analyze vector spaces and spanning sets.
  • Solve least squares problems for data fitting.
