I'll admit I don't know how the MIT CS curriculum is structured, but I suppose it is in there, just not in this particular course.
- jmgrosen 9y agoThis is actually the only math class that's required by the 6-3 degree program, MIT's CS degree. Many people do take linear algebra, though. Source: https://www.eecs.mit.edu/curriculum2016 https://www.eecs.mit.edu/curriculum2016 and I'm a 6-3
- Vervious 9y agoA year or two ago the curricula still mandated one of 18.03 (diff equations) or 18.06 (linalg).
