Linear Algebra
Girls Only & All Genders Course; Prerequisite - Successful completion of AP® Calculus AB or equivalent; Full Year Course
Course Overview
Through a wide variety of practical problems, conceptual questions, and visualizations, students learn how to think about vectors, the spaces in which vectors live, and linear mappings between those spaces. They develop powerful new ways of thinking mathematically and apply their new skills to solve a wide variety of problems from other fields, including computer graphics, economics, and population biology. This year-long course covers a typical one-semester college linear algebra curriculum, including matrix algebra, vector spaces, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, and applications to differential equations. Linear algebra is a required and very useful subject in college for many science and engineering majors, and it can be studied either before or after multivariable calculus. It’s a great fit for the student who has completed AP® Calculus AB or BC, who is passionate about a challenge to think in new ways, and who wants to see math applied to the real world.
“The inclusion of proofs has made me have to think more about logic, which is great. Also, the course regularly challenges me to move between thinking geometrically and algebraically.”
