MATH 2920
New Course Offering: Math 2920 Mathematics for Data Science
Data science and machine learning are revolutionizing the world, and if you want to understand them, you need to understand the math behind them. This class will teach you that. With only Calculus I (MATH 1210) as a prerequisite, it covers the foundational math you'll need for designing, optimizing, and analyzing machine learning models and their applications.
Topics Covered:
- Vectors and vector spaces
- Linear transformations and projections
- Multivariate optimization
- Essential probability and statistics
- Machine learning models using these ideas
How can this course fit into your schedule?
- CS majors can count this as their required mathematics support course (in place of MATH 1220, MATH 3110, or MATH 3160).
- This course can serve as a leveling course for the MS in Data Science or Computational Data Science & Machine Learning Post-Bach Certificate equivalent to the required courses in linear algebra, integral calculus, and differential and inferential statistics.
