Discrete Mathematics

Catalog description

Discrete mathematics is an essential part of the foundation of computer science (a study of finite structure), statistics, and algebra. Its topics can be divided into discrete parts and it is applicable across many disciplines that draw from analytical thinking. In this course, students will study logic, counting, probability, and basic cryptography. Topics include set theory, functions, relations, algorithms, and graph theory. The emphasis is on ideas and abstraction in addition to problem solving. This course will prepare students to apply abstract thinking in their prospective career fields.
