A new course: CS 409 Introduction to scientific computing

CS 409 : Introduction to Scientific Computing is a new course that is offered this semester. In this course, the focus is on solving scientific problems such as linear systems, least squares, eigenvalue problems, nonlinear equations and optimization problems using numerical and iterative techniques. The stability and convergence of such computational  algorithms will be discussed. This course could be beneficial for all engineering disciplines in that in many engineering applications, an optimization problem or an equation needs to be solved numerically.

CS 409 is a core course for CS and mechatronics major programs and for mathematics minor program.
