Applications of Mathematics (Commuters) 7/13-7/17/15

The objectives of this course are to enable participants to: (i) experience the ubiquity of math in our daily lives; (ii) understand the universality and applicability of mathematics by using the similar mathematical tools in seemingly diverse areas; (iii) develop critical thinking; and (iv) recognize the importance of mathematics in their future careers.

Participants will investigate scenarios from science, business and/or industry using mathematical tools and critical thinking. Case-studies will range from simple to complex problems, with an emphasis on mathematical modeling, analysis and interpretation of solutions. Most of the mathematical concepts required will be discussed during the sessions, however, participants are expected to know at least Algebra I. Prior knowledge of Calculus is beneficial but not required. All participants will also work individually or in groups, on related projects and present their findings on the last day. The program will end at noon on Friday.
