Mathematics

Statistics
Mathematics

This sequence of courses is offered fall (MAT41S), winter (MAT42S) and spring (MAT43S). MAT41S covers the basic principles of descriptive statistics. One-variable topics include graphical representations of data, measures of central tendency and measures of...

Transition to Calculus
Mathematics

This option provides a two- or three-term transition for students with three full years of high school mathematics. MAT31T and MAT34T are primarily for entering uppers. MAT31T/32T provides a two-term transition into our 300-level courses (advanced integrated...

Calculus
Mathematics

This four-term sequence presents a comprehensive and inductive approach to calculus. Working within contexts whenever possible, key concepts are developed with applications in mind. Students learn to read the language of differential equations, and to...

Calculus (enriched)
Mathematics

This four-term sequence covers all the material of the 420/430/510/520 courses, with additional applications and explorations, and in greater depth. Working within contexts whenever possible, key concepts are developed with applications in mind. Students...

Transition 2 Mathematics
Mathematics

This transition option is for students with one or more years of algebra and one full year of geometry. Similar to the 200-level courses, these courses feature the study of geometry tied to algebra processes. Depending on their academic backgrounds, students...

Advanced Integrated Mathematics
Mathematics

The purpose of the 300-level courses is to enable students to expand their view of algebra and geometry to include nonlinear motion and nonlinear functions. The investigation encompasses circular motion and the functions that describe it, ellipses and...

Adv Integrated Mathematics (enriched)
Mathematics

These courses cover the material of MAT310/320/330/400 in greater depth and at an accelerated...

Transition 3 Mathematics
Mathematics

This option provides a two- or three-term transition for students with three full years of high school mathematics. MAT31T and MAT34T are primarily for entering uppers. MAT31T/32T provides a two-term transition into our 300-level courses (advanced integrated...

Topics in Discrete Math
Mathematics

The topics for this course depend on the interests of the instructor, and are usually drawn from everyday experience. They have included fair-division problems, such as apportioning the House of Representatives; network problems, such as map-coloring,...

History of Mathematics
Mathematics

This is a one-trimester course focusing on the historical development of mathematical ideas, the role of individual character and culture in the advancement of mathematics, and the historical context of major discoveries and changes of viewpoint. Major themes...
