Course description |
Linear algebra provides indispensable tools to analyze various mathematical phenomena appearing in engineering. In this course, we will learn various computations based on matrices so that we can treat more abstract notions such as vector spaces at hand. This course is offered in English as one of the Multidisciplinary Courses of the Global Integrated Studies, and is open to students from Tokyo University of Foreign Studies and the University of Electro-Communications. |
Expected Learning |
The goal of this course is to be capable of performing basic operations on matrices.The goal of this lecture is to become able to learn various characteristics about matrices and to do concrete caluculations.This is often necessary to describe and analyze various phenomena in science fields. Competency development: Ability to Explore Knowledge, Reading Comprehension skills, Knowledge on Science and Technology" |
