3.00 Credits
The nature of mathematical reasoning and the concept of proof in relation to concrete problems. Topics may include inductive reasoning, deductive reasoning, various number systems and their history, everyday arithmetic, financial management, introductory probability, and statistics. Topics are often discussed with a view toward practical applications and interesting real world examples. Closed to students who have credit for MA/ST200-level courses.
-
3.00 Credits
Special topics in elementary mathematics. Topic varies depending on interest of the instructor. Closed to students who have credit for MA/ST200-level courses. May be repeated for credit with different topics.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Restricted to graduate Baltimore County Math Cohort students. Reviews algebra including factoring, expo- nents, and radicals; equations and inequalities; func- tions and relations including algebraic, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonomic functions.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Restricted to graduate Baltimore County Math Cohort students. Differential and integral calculus in which concepts are considered graphically, numerically, and algebraically. Definition, interpretation, and applications of the derivative. A computer algebra system and graph- ing calculator are used to illustrate concepts and address more complicated problems.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MA132. Restricted to graduate Baltimore County Math Cohort students. A continuation of MA132. Antideriv- atives, applications of the integral, Taylor, and geometric series. Every concept is considered graphically, numeri- cally, and algebraically. A computer algebra system and graphing calculator are used to illustrate concepts and address more complicated problems.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Restricted to Baltimore County teachers. Relation- ships between arithmetic and algebraic operations and properties, functions and their graphs, solutions to equa- tions and systems of equations of varying degree, mod- eling to represent real-world situations. Topics in geom- etry such as the Pythagorean theorem, congruency, similarity, plane figure properties, and measurement including error estimates. Geometric constructions and translations using computer software and traditional methods. Pedagogical methods are explored. For middle school teachers. A graphing calculator will be used.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: CS201; MA109 or a score of 90 or better on the Accuplacer Placement Test or one year of high school calculus. Boolean algebra, combinatorics, inductive and deductive proofs, sets, graphs, functions, and recurrence relations. Same course as CS295. (Fall only) MA301 Introduction to Linear Algebra (3.00 cr.) Prerequisite: MA252. An introduction to the basics of matrices, linear transformations, and vector spaces along with selected applications. Topics include linear inde- pendence, dimension, solutions of linear systems, eigen- values, and diagonalization. Applications are drawn from areas such as computer graphics, input-output analysis, and least squares. The computer package MATLAB is introduced and used throughout the course. (Spring only)
-
1.00 Credits
Prerequisite: CS201. Corequisite: MA351. MATLAB is a high level, numerically-oriented software package used exten- sively in academia and industry. Data structures, MATLAB functions, two- and three-dimensional graphics, and programming constructs are covered. Topics include loops, conditional statements, and I/O of data. Math- ematical and statistical applications are emphasized and a course project is included. Required of all mathematical sciences majors. For non-degree credit. (Fall only)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MA351, or MA252 and written permission of the instructor. An introduction to ordinary differential equations. Techniques for solving and analyzing first and second order differential equations, both linear and nonlinear; systems of differential equations. Qualita- tive and numerical methods as well as closed form solu- tions are emphasized, and mathematical software is used. No computer experience necessary. (Spring only)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Restricted to Baltimore County teachers. Data analysis, graphical and numerical descriptive statistics for one and two variables, finite probability, simple prob- ability distributions, logical connectives, permutations, combinations, pattern recognition, and modular arith- metic. Pedagogical methods are explored. Graphing cal- culators and computers are used to evaluate and rep- resent data. For middle school teachers.
