    Sample Applications of Linear Algebra

    This section contains a number of single-page handouts, one corresponding to the material for each of the 15 weeks of the semester. Each contains a sample of how the linear algebra material is used in other science and engineering disciplines; mainly they are taken (with permission) from the actual textbooks used in those higher courses at UIC.

    It is a pleasure to acknowledge a summer 1994 grant to develop this material, from the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, through the Council for Effective Teaching and Learning. Additionally I would like to thank the many faculty from those other departments who helped advise me with the preparation.
