Catalog description

Corequisite: MATH 2215 (Calculus I).Quantitative reasoning intensive course (Q1).Permission of Instructor required.This course is designed to re-enforce the topics of Calculus while discussing its application to CSIS. The material consists of examples in which students can see the importance of topics in Calculus to the world around them and the connection of these topics to the daily work of computer scientists. Students engage in projects, which illustrate the strong interrelation of these two fields. Students use computer algebra systems (e.g. MAPLE, MATLAB) to develop computer code, which performs basic Calculus computational skills.Faculty: C. WU, J. VOGEL
