Course Objective
This course is designed to introduce the students to the fundamentals of Basic concepts
and techniques of linear algebra. This course will help the students to understand basic
facts and terminology relating to numbers, system of linear equations, matrices and
inverses, determinants etc. The students will be able to visualize the algebraic equations
as matrices and determinants conversely to present matrices and determinants by
algebraic equations. This course will enable the students to define the fundamental
concepts in mathematics, glimpse at vector spaces, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, Markov
processes. Finally, the students will know how to apply this knowledge in many real life
problems.
