3.00 Credits
Surveys the techniques and resources available for scholarly investigation in the humanities. (Required of all students majoring in philosophy, history, and literature, including American Studies.)
-
3.00 Credits
Directed study permits qualified single students or a small group of students, in consultation with a faculty member, to study material and topics not covered in other courses. ( Allows repetition for credit.)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): Departmental Placement Presents basic concepts of functions, graphs and differential calculus. Special emphasis will be placed on formulation and solution of business applications such as break-even, depreciation, marginal profit/revenue/cost, and optimization. Specific topics include the notion of a function, linear, quadratic, exponential, and logarithmic functions. techniques of differential calculus, and concavity.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): Departmental Placement Same contents as MA 123 but meets 3 times per week.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): MA 123 Continues MA 123. Presents the basic concepts of math of finance and integral calculus. Specific emphasis will be placed on business applications such as compound interest, present/future value, annuities, and amortization. Specifics include the techniques of integration, the area between two curves, and the fundamental theorem of calculus.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): Departmental Placement Same contents as MA 126 except meets three times per week.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): At least three years of preparatory mathematics and departmental permission Note: Students who take this course may not take MA 119 or MA 125 for credit. Presents a rigorous treatment of certain topics in analytic geometry, limits and continuity, the differentiation of algebraic functions of a single variable, optimization problems, curve sketching, the differential, and applications to business, economics and social sciences. Computer solutions are used for selected problems.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): MA 131 or equivalent Continues MA 131. Covers such topics as the integration of algebraic functions, applications of the definite integral, differentiation and integration of transcendental functions, techniques of integration, indeterminate forms, improper integrals, and applications to business, economics and the social and physical sciences. Computer solutions are used for selected problems.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): One year of high school calculus; enrollment in the Bentley College Honors Program; and placement in the top Mathematical Sciences Track. Note: Students who take this course may not receive credit for other non-honors freshman courses. Fulfills the Mathematics I general education requirement when followed by honors MA 249 (Mathematics II). Provides rigorous coverage of the techniques of differential and integral calculus. Topics such as the differentiation and integration of single variable functions, optimization, and improper integrals will be discussed. The majority of the class time will be devoted to applications from disciplines including, but not limited to, economics, finance, accounting, management and marketing. Special applications may include depreciation, marginal analysis and present/future value. Software will be utilized throughout the course for selected problems. Written reports and oral presentations for each weekly project will be required. Guest speakers will be used where appropriate.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): MA 119, MA 125 or equivalent Introduces basic concepts of dynamical systems through lectures, slides, films and computer experimentation. Students will predict system behavior based on observation of computer results (no computer programming experience is necessary). Topics covered include iteration of functions, Julia sets, Mandelbrot sets, chaos and fractals.
