MATH 102 PZ -Differential Equations/Modeling

Institution: Pitzer

Description: In this course we will introduce some basic models include Lotka-Volterra (Predator-Prey) models, as well as some standard modeling techniques. The emphasis in the course will be placed on qualitative methods and the use of software to understand solutions. Eigenvalues an eigenvectors will be introduced to fully solve linear systems in the plane. Linear and non-linear systems of differential equations will be analyzed by classifying orbits near fixed-point solutions. Students may not receive credit for both Math 102 and Math 111.

Prerequisite(s): Please check course schedule for requirements.
