MAT 280 - Linear Algebra

Credits: 3
Class: 2 Lab: 2

Prerequisite(s): State, Take: MAT 271
Corequisite(s): None.

This course provides an introduction to linear algebra topics. Emphasis is placed on the development of abstract concepts and applications for vectors, systems of equations, matrices, determinants, vector spaces, multi-dimensional linear transformations, eigenvectors, eigenvalues, diagonalization and orthogonality. Upon completion, students should be able to demonstrate understanding of the theoretical concepts and select and use appropriate models and techniques for finding solutions to linear algebra-related problems with and without technology. This course has been approved for transfer under the CAA as a premajor and/or elective course requirement.
