MATH 1380 - MATH BIOLOGY


Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
This course will provide a broad introduction to mathematical methods typically applied to problems in biology. Models using calculus, ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations, discrete dynamical systems, stochastic dynamics, or a cellular automata framework will be presented and principal methods for their analysis will be described. Computational methods will also be covered, including computing platforms such as XPPAUT. Throughout the course, students will have extensive opportunities to practice the development and analysis of mathematical biology models.
