MTH (0144) 363 - Mathematical Modeling and Data Analysis

Credits: 3.00

Students explore functions of several variables (representatives and uses), matrix methods (representation and manipulation), curve fitting (statistical analysis of data and a study of parameters), and probability. These topics will be tied together through the ideas of mathematical modeling. Students utilize technology as a tool for the solving of problems
