  • MATH 30A: Mathematical Excursions

    3.00 Credits
    Hofstra University

    Semester Hours: 3 Fall, Spring An exploration into several mathematical topics not covered in MATH 40, 45, 50, or 61, chosen by the instructor, to give an appreciation of what mathematics is about. Only a background in high school algebra is needed, yet the topics are covered in sufficient depth to show the power and beauty of mathematics. Possible topics include: problem solving, number theory, graph theory, voting models, fair division, symmetry, fractals, Fibonacci numbers, consumer mathematics, games and puzzles. Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes: At least two years of high school mathematics and Math Proficiency/Placement scores as interpreted by Advisement. Credit given for MATH 30A or 30B, but not both. (Formerly MATH 12.)
