Course Objective

This course will provide a comprehensive introduction to numerical methods for graduate students not specializing in computer science or numerical analysis. The emphasis will be on making a broad review, so that the students will be able to choose the appropriate methods and apply them to their problems of interest. The topics to be covered will include direct and iterative numerical methods for systems of linear equations, least squares problems, determination of eigenvalues and singular values, methods of nonlinear equations, optimization problems, interpolation, numerical integration and differentiation and numerical solution of ordinary and partial equations. Recent methods in numerical analysis.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
