New Course Description: Complex vector spaces, linear transformations, canonical forms, the spectral theorem and eigenvalue problems, applications. Students enrolled in MTH 541 will be expected to complete a graduate project. Prerequisite: MTH 280 and MTH 341 with a grade of C- or better |
|
Justification for changing the course (e.g. alignment with other institutions, program revision, etc.): MTH 441 is a proof-based course, so the knowledge of proofs acquired in MTH 280 is essential to success in the class. |
|
Students/Program affected: Students pursuing a mathematics major, applied mathematics major, mathematics education major, computer science - mathematics major, and mathematics minor. |
