Subject & Catalog Number
Course Information
Description
Abstracting the essential components and mechanisms from a natural system to produce a mathematical model, which can be analyzed with a variety of formal mathematical methods, is perhaps the most important, but least understood, task in applied mathematics. This course approaches a number of problems without the prejudice of trying to apply a particular method of solution. Topics drawn from biology, economics, engineering, physical and social sciences.
Course Notes
Applied Mathematics 115 is also offered as Engineering Sciences 115. Students may not take both for credit. Undergraduate Engineering Students should enroll in Engineering Sciences 115.
Recommended Prep
