MATH 11200-11300 - Studies in Mathematics I,II

Institution:

University of Chicago

Subject:

Description:

PQ: MATH 10600, or placement into MATH 13100 or higher. While students may take MATH 11300 without having taken MATH 11200, it is recommended that MATH 11200 be taken first. Either course in this sequence meets the general education requirement in mathematical sciences. These courses are at the level of difficulty of the MATH 13100-13200-13300 calculus sequence. They cover the basic conceptual foundations of mathematics by examining the ideas of number and symmetry. The first quarter addresses number theory, including a study of the rules of arithmetic, integral domains, primes and divisibility, congruences, and modular arithmetic. The second quarter's main topic is symmetry and geometry, including a study of polygons, Euclidean construction, polyhedra, group theory, and topology. The courses emphasize the understanding of ideas and the ability to express them through rigorous mathematical arguments. MATH 11200-11300: Autumn, Winter; MATH 11200: Spring.
