5. Course Objectives:

The Nonlinear Optimization course is designed to equip students with a foundational knowledge of optimization theory and algorithms, while developing their skills to apply this knowledge to solving practical problems. Key concepts and important results are presented systematically and rigorously, with clear and straightforward explanations to help students easily approach and master the material

6. Brief Description of Course Content:

The course content consists of three main parts:

+ Fundamental mathematical knowledge for nonlinear optimization: linear algebra, basic calculus, and convex analysis.

+ Optimization conditions and methods used to solve various nonlinear optimization problems, including unconstrained problems, problems with convex constraint sets, linearly constrained problems, and problems with equality and/or inequality constraints.

+ Selected MATLAB/Python applications for implementing and experimenting with the algorithms.
