Linear Algebra

Volledige vakbeschrijving

Linear Algebra introduces students to the concepts of linear algebra from a algebraic and geometric point of view. Linear algebra is essential for most calculations in mathematics, engineering and computer science. This makes it a broad topic in which students are taught concepts ranging from solving systems of linear equations to linear transformations and characteristics of linear systems. The lectures in this course are accompanied by computer labs, in which the student has to program a set of assignments. The software package used in this course is Matlab, which is one of the industry standards for calculations and computations that involve linear algebra. After completing this course the student will be able to use the fundamental concepts of linear algebra to implement and perform mathematical computations. Additionally the student will obtain valuable experience in using and writing code for Matlab
