Doesn't look like it.
One might argue that linear algebra is slightly more niche than stuff like graph theoretic algorithms. There are applications to broadly useful things like gradient descent, but that seems to fall under numerical linear algebra which probably deserves its own course in the Applied Math department.
N.b. just playing devil's advocate, I don't have a strong opinion either way.
