Description

This module develops students鈥� understanding of the concepts of linear algebra and provides experience with its methods and applications.

The module covers fundamental algebraic tools involving matrices and vectors to study systems of linear equations and Gaussian elimination, linear transformations, orthogonal projection, least squares, determinants, and eigenvalues and eigenvectors. The module includes examples that illustrate the concepts and their practical application in management.

The aim is to develop a rigorous understanding of key mathematical concepts that underpin the practice of management and develop strong quantitative thinking skills. The concepts and tools covered in the module will be applied in later modules to support the analysis of complex management problems and the development of associated mathematical models. Important concepts in other areas (e.g. economics, finance, data analytics) can be explored in more depth if students have a strong background in the underlying mathematics.
