MA-UY 4424 Numerical Analysis

3-4 Credits

In numerical analysis one explores how mathematical problems can be analyzed and solved with a computer. As such, numerical analysis has very broad applications in mathematics, physics, engineering, finance, and the life sciences. This course gives an introduction to this subject for mathematics majors. Theory and practical examples using Matlab will be combined to study a range of topics ranging from simple root-finding procedures to differential equations and the finite element method | Offered in the fall and spring.

Prerequisite(s): A grade of C or better in MA-UY 2114 and (MA-UY 3034 or MA-UY 3044 or MA-UY 3054 or MA-UY 3113).
