+ | Content in MATH 1554 is typically assessed through homework, quizzes, and exams. These tend to have a mix of questions on theory, often given as true/false questions, and computation. While the course requires no formal proofs, the theoretical nature of MATH 1554 can be challenging for first-year students. Homework may not be very time-consuming, but questions often involve a bit of thinking. |

+ | ==Future Outlook== |
||
⚫ | MATH 1554 is generally taken by freshmen due to it having almost no prerequisites. However, future calculus classes, such as [[MATH 2550]], [[MATH 2551]], and [[MATH 2552]] will use linear algebra concepts such as matrices, determinants, and eigenvalues. In addition, linear algebra is important for [[Computer Science|computer science]] majors, who have to take classes that require linear algebra, such as [[MATH 3012]] and [[CS 3510]]. |
