MATH 1002 - Applications in Math2
Investigation of a variety of mathematical models. Models to be investigated will be chosen from the areas of game theory, network models, voting theory, apportionment methods, fair division, and probability and statistics. We will apply these models in such diverse fields as biology, sociology, political science, history, and psychology.
This course is designed to strengthen core algebraic competencies while simultaneously developing the study habits necessary for university-level success. Using the open-source textbook College Algebra 2e (OpenStax), mathematical topics include the logic of equations, linear modeling, inequalities, polynomials, and an introduction to functions. Integrated throughout the course are essential academic strategies, including effective note-taking, test preparation, and metacognitive problem-solving. Upon completion, students will possess both the quantitative skills and the academic toolkit required for further mathematical coursework.
Human beings have always struggled with the concept of infinity. Philosophers and mathematicians have gone mad contemplating its nature and complexity–and yet it is a concept now routinely used by school children. We will trace the history of this mind-boggling concept from Archimedes to Cantor through the eyes of the mathematician. Does not count towards the mathematics major or minor.
