Math Foundations & Algorithmic Thinking

Mathematical Foundations & Algorithmic Thinking is designed to provide students with a solid understanding of the key mathematical and algorithmic concepts essential for analytical modelling of business problems. Students will be introduced to a range of foundational topics, including the concepts of rate of change and local/global extrema, properties and applications of matrices, as well as introductory examples in linear programming. The subject also considers the elementary concepts of conditionals, sequences, Booleans, and algorithmic processes in an applied setting for solving business problems under constraints.
