Convex optimization courses can help you learn linear programming, duality theory, and gradient descent methods. You can build skills in formulating optimization problems, analyzing convex sets, and applying algorithms to practical work. Many courses introduce tools like MATLAB, Python libraries, and optimization software, that support implementing solutions in fields such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, and operations research.
