Description

The course is designed to teach students how to apply Mathematics by formulating, analyzing and criticizing models arising in real-world situations. An important aspect in modelling a problem is to choose an appropriate set of mathematical methods - 'tools' - in which to formulate the problem mathematically. In most cases a problem can be categorized into one of three types, namely: continuous, discrete, and probabilistic. The course will consist of an introduction to mathematical modelling through examples of these three basic modelling types.

Prerequisite(s): MATH 164.3 or MATH 266.3; and MATH 211.3, and STAT 241.3, and (MATH 224.3) or (MATH 225.3 and MATH 226.3) or (MATH 277.3).
