Fall 2012
Mathematics 437:
Mathematical Methods in Biology
PREREQUISITES: Ordinary differential equations (Mathematics 315 or 325)
DESCRIPTION: Mathematics 437 is a one semester biomathematics course that
gives final year undergraduates a comprehensive introduction to the many
faceted ways in which mathematics and the biological and clinical sciences
interact with each other to the benefit of all through mathematical modeling.
Computer laboratories using the software XPP-AUTO are an integral part
of the course work. Offered in alternate years with Physics 413.
TIME: Tuesday and Thursday, 2.30 - 4:.00 p.m.
PLACE: Room 1101, McIntyre Medical Sciences Building, 3655 Promenade Sir
