Academic Calendar 2017/2018 - Numerical Methods II

MATH 4016  Numerical Methods II

Prerequisites:

COSC 3006

Hours:

Three hours of lecture per week for one term.

Credits:

3

Description:

Students study advanced concepts in numerical mathematics and computational problem-solving. Topics include numerical optimization, numerical integration and differentiation, linear algebra (especially eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrices), numerical solutions to differential equations, and approximation. Concepts are motivated by realistic applications. Mathematical software is used to solve complex problems in applied mathematics. The course can be taught together with MATH 5016-Advanced Numerical Methods with the undergraduate students subject to different assignments and evaluation criteria than the graduate students.
