MTHE5325 - Problems Using Mathematical Modeling

MTHE 5325 Problems Using Mathematical Modeling (3 semester hours) Selected concepts in mathematical modeling. Solving non-routine problems and adapting them for classroom use and incorporating topics from mathematical modeling into existing high school courses. Topics include the construction, use, and analysis of empirical and analytical mathematical models, using modeling tools such as functions, curve fitting, simulation, matrices, difference and differential equations, finite graph theory. Appropriate technology will be used. No credit allowed to mathematical sciences majors except those in M.A.T. program. Prerequisite: A junior-level mathematics course. (3-0) T
