MATH 432 - Mathematical Modeling

Draws on the student’s general background in mathematics to construct models for problems arising from such diverse areas as the physical sciences, life sciences, political science, economics, and computing. Emphasis will be on the design, analysis, accuracy, and appropriateness of a model for a given problem. Case studies will be used extensively. Specific mathematical techniques will vary with the instructor and student interest. This course counts towards the capstone requirement. Prerequisite(s): MATH 312 and one of the following: COMP 120 or COMP 123 or COMP 124. Every fall semester. (4 Credits)
