MAS 3114 is a 3 credit course on linear
algebra that the computational nature of the topics. These topics include linear
systems, matrices, determinants, vectors, vector spaces, linear
transformations, inner products, eigenvalues, and
applications. The specific list of subjects can be found here . Three computer
projects will be assigned. Proofs are not stressed as much as in MAS 4105
Linear Algebra 1 although selected proofs will be covered in class. One of
the major objectives of the course is to learn MATLAB, a programming environment, that will be used for the projects. This
course is designed to serve science, computer science, quantitative
science, and engineering majors, and mathematics minors. Mathematics majors
are required to take MAS 4105.
