In a lot of my courses professors have covered concepts from numerical optimization/numerical linear algebra but just enough to get by. Why do schools generally not offer a dedicated course on this material? In convex optimization they have one lecture on numerical optimization, but I feel like it deserves more attention since so many different fields rely on it. I would sign up in a heartbeat and I think a lot of others would too, particularly graduate students in ML/Robotics/CS.

@hubbahubba There are a couple courses offered by CMU as a whole, e.g.,
But I'd be interested in hearing whether you've looked at this courses, and if they include the kind of material you're imagining. (There are a lot of different aspects of numerical computing to cover!)
