Linear Algebra

Course Description
This course uses postulational or axiomatic approach to introduce students
to postulational and axiomatic mathematics. It alsouses mechanical
approach to apply theorems and concepts to its related
disciplines. Computer Science and InformationTechnology students
will find this subject an advantage since they will be introduced to
the basic concepts needed in linearprogramming.

Course Objectives
At the end of the course the students are expected to:
1.understand the fundamental concepts of
matrices and determinants.
2.apply the concepts of matrices and determinants in solving
systems of linear equation.
3.understand the concepts of vectors, linear transformation as
well as eigenvectors and eigenvalues.
4.relate the basic principles of linear algebra to different fields of
sciences as well as to real-life situations
