Have you ever wondered how Mathematica is different from Matlab and other programming languages? Or why your professor seems to think you can do any integral known to man? Maybe you would like to learn and use Mathematica more but don’t know where to start, or simply want a refresher on programming and problem solving in Mathematica.

If any of these sound familiar or you just want to learn more about a powerful scientific and engineering analysis tool, then come check out this introductory Mathematica workshop hosted by the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE). The workshop will be held Monday, Sept. 23rd, from 7-8:30 in the Duderstadt Center Training Room.

Topics will be covered through examples and will include:

  • Symbolic calculations
  • List and matrix manipulation
  • Common Mathematica functions
  • Plotting analytical functions and numerical data
  • Where Mathematica can be more beneficial than MATLAB
  • Using the extensive Mathematica help library
