Catalog Description

This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the theory and applications of Optimisation. It builds upon fundamental concepts in linear algebra, calculus, and numerical analysis. The students will learn the basic concepts, tools, and methods used in Optimisation as well as their employment on some real-life applications.

Goal

This course aims to familiarize students with the main concepts, tools, and methods of mathematical optimisation. This understanding will enable the students with some of the necessary mathematical background to handle other courses in this master’s program and to approach different real-life applications that can be written as optimisation problems.
