MTH 230 - Mathematical Modeling

4 Credits


Students use deterministic and stochastic models based on difference and differential equations to draw conclusions and make predictions about natural systems. Topics include equilibrium analysis, bifurcation, chaos, hysteresis, phase plane analysis, and numerical simulation. Students apply modeling concepts to population ecology, population viability, predator-prey relationships, sustainable use of renewable resources, and global climate.
Prerequisites: MTH 140
