MATH 400
This course is a study of groups, rings, integral domains, fields, and vector spaces.MATH 403
This course concentrates on the careful study of the principles underlying the calculus of real valued functions of real variables. Topics include sets and functions, compactness, connectedness, uniform convergence, differentiation, and integration.MATH 410
This course is a study of those properties of objects that are preserved when stretching, twisting, bending, or compressing an object without tearing it and without identifying any two of its points. Topics include metric and topological spaces, cardinality, countability properties, separation axioms, continuity, and homeomorphic spaces.MATH 420
This course is a professionally supervised experience with off-campus mathematicians, computer scientists, or applied scientists using modem research and/or analytical techniques. Settings may vary from purely academic summer programs to private or public scientific institutions. The number of credits awarded depends on the number of imbedded hours in the internship experience. A minimum of 50 imbedded hours is expected per credit with the maximum number of credit earned is eight.MATH 495
This course is an administrative placeholder used to record a student’s score on Comprehensive Exams (CR/NCR).PHYS 103
Everyday Physics is a study from non-technical and non-mathematical viewpoints of the aims, methods (experimental and theoretical), and achievements in the attempts to understand the basic principles governing the physical world. The course begins with commonplace observations and concrete examples and then proceeds to generalizations and hypotheses which unify them. This course is designed for non-science majors. The course includes three hours of lecture and two hours of laboratory each week.
PHYS 151
This course is designed to introduce the non-science major to the field of astronomy. Topics include the history of astronomy, light and spectra, the solar system, stars and stellar evolution, galaxies, and the past and future history of the universe. Although the course is primarily descriptive, physical principles underlying astronomical phenomena are studied. The course includes three hours of lecture and two hours of laboratory each week. Laboratories include evening observation sessions and a field trip. An additional course fee is required.
