Fall 2002 Classes

6.002 Circuits and Electronics: http://web.mit.edu/6.002/www/fall02/index.html
A. Agarwal, J. H. Lang - 15 units
Fundamentals of the lumped circuit abstraction. Resistive elements and networks; independent and dependent sources; switches and MOS devices; digital abstraction; amplifiers; and energy storage elements. Dynamics of first- and second-order networks; design in the time and frequency domains; analog and digital circuits and applications. Design exercises. Alternate week laboratory. Enrollment may be limited. 4 Engineering Design Points.
7.012 Introductory Biology: http://web.mit.edu/7.01x/7.012/
E. Lander, R. Weinberg - 12 units
All three subjects cover the same core material, which includes the fundamental principles of biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and cell biology. In addition, each version of the subject has its own distinctive material, described below. The core material focuses on function at a molecular level: the structure and regulation of genes, and the structure and synthesis of proteins; how these molecules are integrated into cells; and how cells are integrated into multicellular systems and organisms. Fall Term: 7.012. Exploration into areas of current research in cell biology, immunology, neurobiology, developmental biology, and evolution.
8.022 Physics II: http://web.mit.edu/8.022/www/
E. Katsavounidis - 12 units
Parallel to 8.02, but more advanced mathematically. Some knowledge of vector calculus assumed. Maxwell's equations, in both differential and integral form. Electrostatic and magnetic vector potential. Properties of dielectrics and magnetic materials. In addition to the theoretical subject matter, several experiments in electricity and magnetism are performed by the students in the laboratory. Credit cannot also be received for 8.02X.
14.01 Principles of Microeconomics: http://web.mit.edu/14.01/www/
J. Gruber - 12 units
Introduces microeconomic concepts and analysis, supply and demand analysis, theories of the firm and individual behavior, competition and monopoly, and welfare economics. Applications to problems of current economic policy.
18.700 Linear Algebra: http://www-math.mit.edu/~dav/700.html
D. Vogan - 12 units
A rigorous treatment of linear algebra, including vector spaces, systems of linear equations, bases, linear independence, matrices, determinants, eigenvalues, inner products, quadratic forms, and canonical forms of matrices. Compared with 18.06, more emphasis on theory and proofs.

Total Units: 63 units
