-
3.00 Credits
Functions of several variables, implicit functions and Jacobian determinants, line and surface integrals, and the theorems of Green and Stokes will be discussed. Three lecture hours per week. Prerequisite: MAT320 or MAT311.
-
3.00 Credits
Theory of games, functional equations, dynamic programming, simulation, models, optimization, with applications to system design, economics, engineering and management. Three lecture hours per week. Prerequisites: MAT308 and knowledge of a scientific programming language.
-
3.00 Credits
An overview of fundamental designs used to analyze experimental data. Topics include simple and multiple linear regression, analysis of variance, two-group discriminant analysis, factor analysis, time series analysis, and the analysis of categorical data. There will be extensive use of statistical software packages on the computer. Not open to students who have previously completed MAT347. Three lecture hours per week. Prerequisite: MAT247 or MAT407.
-
3.00 Credits
A culminating experience for the mathematics major. Students will read mathematics journal articles, work problems and prove theorems derived from those articles, study topics independently, give oral presentations and write a mathematical paper. The paper may be expository or original in nature and students will hand in several drafts and make necessary revisions before the final product is completed. In the process, students will need to review and apply skills learned in previous courses as well as independently study new concepts. Students will be exposed to the "nuts and bolts" of doing mathematical research along the way, including using common databases for finding papers and typesetting a paper properly. Three lecture hours per week. Prerequisites: successful completion of all other core courses for the mathematics major.
-
3.00 Credits
The purpose of this course is to provide the student with an opportunity to explore in depth an area of mathematics that would not ordinarily be encountered in the program of required courses. It is recommended that the student take as many of the required courses as possible before enrolling in Directed Study. Credit for this course may not be applied toward Major requirements. Prerequisites: At least one 400 level math course (with a grade of C or above), Junior or Senior standing, agreement of a Department faculty member to act as supervisor and permission of Mathematics Department Chairperson.
-
3.00 - 12.00 Credits
An opportunity for students to gain practical or technical training in an industrial/commercial/research environment. The student makes the necessary arrangements with the chosen facility, in consultation with an appropriate faculty member. The internship must meet College Academic Policies (described elsewhere in this Catalog) and Mathematics Department Policy (available in the Mathematics Department). Open only to Junior/Senior Mathematics Majors who have obtained a faculty sponsor for this internship. Prerequisites: Permission of a faculty supervisor and permission of the Department Chairperson.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides qualified students with research direction and the opportunity to participate in independent work in any area of mathematics of special interest to them, provided that a faculty supervisor is available. A paper and poster presentation are required at the end of the course. Open only to Junior/Senior Mathematics majors. Prerequisites: Permission of the faculty supervisor and the Department Chairperson.
-
3.00 Credits
This course builds on MAT572, continuing with the same project or starting with a new project. Students in this course will be expected to present their results in a professional setting. Open only to Junior/Senior Mathematics Majors.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is intended to develop those ideas, computational techniques, and methods of reasoning used in college mathematics, with an emphasis on algebra needed to formulate and solve first and second degree equations, constructing models using linear and quadratic functions, and concepts of coordinate geometry. Only for students entering Fall 1999 or later who have not passed either the Accuplacer Elementary Algebra Test or the College Level Math Test or for those students who entered before Fall 1999 who have not satisfied the Basic Mathematics Competency Requirement. Does not give degree credit. Three lecture hours per week.
-
3.00 Credits
The emphasis of this course is on the utilization of film as a medium for the expression of contemporary social thought during selected periods of time. A parallel concern is the multifaceted function of film in reinforcing and modifying the individual's understanding, attitudes and beliefs about the world in which he or she lives. The History of the Cinema is designed to afford participants integrated progression of technological, social, economic, aesthetic and personal factors which helped create and direct the cinematic art. Three lecture hours per week.
