Linear Algebra
MIT OpenCourseWare’s Linear Algebra course covers matrix theory and topics applied in physics, economics, and other disciplines.
About Linear Algebra
This MIT OpenCourseWare page presents an undergraduate Linear Algebra course on matrix theory. It emphasizes topics used in physics, economics, social sciences, natural sciences, and engineering. The course is designed for independent study and includes lecture videos by Professor Gilbert Strang, summary notes, problem-solving videos, problem sets with solutions, Java demonstrations, and exams with solutions. The page lists the course as taught in Fall 2011.
The materials are organized around Professor Strang's textbook, Introduction to Linear Algebra. Summary notes include suggested readings from his Linear Algebra textbook, and the course parallels the combination of theory and applications found in that book. The page does not state the textbook's cost or whether it is required, and it does not describe any live instruction or instructor interaction.
