Numerical Linear Algebra

About this programme

No fees are charged for EU and EEA citizens, Swedish residence permit holders and exchange students. In this course you will study numerical techniques for approximating the solutions of linear systems of equations, least squares problems and eigenvalue problems. You will learn about relevant applications and about the mathematical background of these problems, and how the algorithms are constructed. By solving problems and doing computer exercises you will learn to apply current methods, study their resource use and judge how reliable the results are. Knowledge equivalent to the courses MMG400 Linear Algebra II and MMG410 Numerical analysis. All eligible applicants who have applied before the deadline will be granted a place. Mathematical Sciences is a joint department of Chalmers/University of Gothenburg. Your education takes place in the spacious and bright premises of Mathematical Sciences at the Chalmers campus Johanneberg, where there are lecture halls, computer rooms and group rooms. Here you can also find student lunch room and reading room, as well as student counsellors and student office.
