Foundations of Biomedical Computing

3 units

This elective course provides a basis for solving problems in biomedical engineering through coding and computation. Coding structures applied to concepts in linear algebra, statistics, and probability are introduced as a foundation to more advanced biomedical data science applications in machine learning and artificial intelligence. The course is taught using Python; no prior knowledge of Python is expected or required. Students should be comfortable with high school level algebra and geometry. This course is required as prerequisite for BME440, Biomedical Data Science, and is a required course for the Biomedical Data Science minor.
