Summary

An introduction to the study of finite mathematics. Topics in finite mathematics are chosen for their real-world application to business, economics, social sciences and biology. Expand your mathematical knowledge in a course of study distinct from calculus. The study group begins with a review of some elementary algebra concepts before applying those to linear systems, matrices and optimization. The second half of the course provides an introduction to additional topics such as the mathematics of finance, probability, Markov chains and game theory. Earn both completion and proficiency certificates by mastering these topics, commonly found in college courses on finite mathematics.

About Wolfram Daily Study Groups

Daily Study Groups are fun, directed, incremental learning resources. An instructor guides each session by sharing short lessons, polling the group to review key concepts, introducing practice problems and answering questions. A certificate of program completion will be awarded to participants who attend online sessions and pass quizzes. Level 1 proficiency certification will be awarded to those who also pass the online course exam.
