Topics may include voting methods, power distributions, apportionment, fair division, graph theory, coding theory, and scheduling problems.

MATH 120 Functions and Models (QS)
Study of algebraic, trigonometric, exponential and logarithmic functions within the context of mathematical modeling.

MATH 130 Calculus I (QS, NS)
Study of limits, differentiation, and integration of functions of one variable. Prerequisite: MATH 120 or its equivalent.

MATH 140 Calculus II (QS, NS)
Further aspects of integration of functions of one variable. Infinite series. Prerequisite: MATH 130 or advanced placement.

MATH 195 Mathematical Problem Solving [SP]
Practical sessions in solving challenging problems in mathematics (possible sources: periodicals, problem collection books, or Putnam exams). The class meets biweekly to discuss solutions and receive new assignments. Most problems are solved between sessions, individually or in groups. A student receives one course credit after four semesters of successful problem solving. Prerequisite: MATH 130 or consent of instructor.

MATH 215 Statistical Analysis

Applications to the students' major disciplines will be included throughout the course as well as in a culminating project. (This course will not satisfy any requirements for a major or minor in mathematics. Students may not receive credit for both this course and another introductory statistics course such as PSYC 290 or BUSI 250.) Prerequisite: Sophomore standing or higher.

MATH 230 Multivariable Calculus
Vectors and coordinate systems in two and three dimensions, vector-valued functions, functions of several variables, extrema, multiple integrals, vector fields, including fundamental theorems of vector calculus. This course will have an emphasis on developing geometric intuition. Offered in alternate years. Prerequisite: MATH 140 or consent of instructor.

MATH 240 Discrete Mathematics (NS)
An introduction to the discrete paradigm in mathematics and computer science. Topics include induction, recursion, algorithmic problem-solving, graph theory, number theory, and counting techniques. Prerequisite: MATH 130 or consent of instructor.

MATH 260 Differential Equations (NS)
Study of ordinary differential equations and systems of equations, through the use of analytic, qualitative/ geometric, and numerical techniques. Applications from physics, biology, chemistry, engineering, economics, and psychology will be presented. Prerequisite: MATH 140.

MATH 270 Linear Algebra (NS)
Solving linear systems, matrix algebra, vector spaces and linear transformations, eigenvectors, orthogonality. Prerequisite: MATH 130.

MATH 280 History of Mathematics (HP, W2)

MATH 290 Introduction to Advanced Mathematics (W2)
Fundamentals of set theory, logic, and functions. Emphasis is on developing the students' theorem-proving skills, independent work, written and oral communication skills, and ability to critique others' work. Prerequisite: MATH 140 and completion of or concurrent enrollment in MATH 240.

MATH 310 Mathematical Probability and Statistics
Theory of probability and mathematical statistics including an introduction to basic concepts of probability theory, discrete and continuous random variables, distribution theory, moment-generating functions, and the Central Limit Theorem. Other topics may include the theory of statistical inference, point estimation, confidence intervals, regression, hypothesis testing, and analysis of variance. Offered in alternate years. Prerequisite: MATH 140.

MATH 320 Algebra
Introduction to classical algebraic systems and their morphisms. Topics include groups, rings, fields, substructures, ideals, homomorphisms, and quotients. Offered in alternate years. Prerequisite: MATH 290.

MATH 340 Combinatorics
Continues the ideas of counting, graph theory, and algorithms from Mathematics 240. Topics may include Ramsey Theory, designs, coding theory, generating functions, and optimization. Offered in alternate years. Prerequisite: MATH 240.

MATH 350 Real Analysis
A rigorous study of the structure of the real line and the properties of real-valued functions. Topics include sequences, limits, continuity, differentiabililty, and integrability. Offered in alternate years. Prerequisite: MATH 290.
