Prerequisite Knowledge[edit | edit source]

Calculus with a high score.

Calculus is used very little in this course. The calculus prerequisite only shows that you are able to learn mathematics at this level.

Equivalent Courses[edit | edit source]

MATH 1553 and MATH 1554, each of which covers linear algebra but with less emphasis on abstraction.

This course is preferable to the others, if you are a mathematician or similar theorist.

Resources[edit | edit source]

  • A textbook often used for this course is Linear Algebra by Hefferon.
