MA 327 - Mathematical Modeling

4 lecture hours 0 lab hours 4 credits
Course Description
The construction of a mathematical model requires the modeler to describe physical characteristics and processes of behavior in physical and natural systems by invoking mathematical language, using mathematical laws and concepts. Then the model is used to verify known results of the past and present, and to hopefully be able to extrapolate the future events. Topics of the course might include, depending upon instructor and student interest, statistical models, differential equations models, difference equations, Markov processes, optimization, etc. (prereq: MA 235  and consent of OR program director)
