Descriptif
Linear algebra (FMA_1F001_EP, formerly MAA101) is a fast-paced course which provides students with an overview of the most useful techniques of linear algebra. Upon completion of this course, students will fully understand the fundamental concepts of vector spaces, dimension, linear systems, matrices and determinants, and how they apply to problems in other elds of the Bachelor program.

Vos modalités d'acquisition :
For the short tests, the midterm and the final exam, no documents are allowed.
The grade is computed as a mean of the exam (E), the midterm (M), 2 homeworks (H1 and H2) and shorts tests (T1 and T2). The formula is as follows:
Grade = (50/100)*max(E,(E+M)/2) + (15/100)T1 + (15/100)T2 + (10/100)H1 + (10/100)H2.
