Credit: 3 hours
Prerequisite: At least a "C" in MATH 2252
This course is a post-calculus treatment of probability and statistics. Topics include descriptive statistics, probability distributions for discrete and continuous random variables, statistical inference, one way analysis of variance, and regression analysis. Three hours per week.
MATH 4150 Linear Algebra
Credit: 3 hours
Prerequisites: At least a "C" in both MATH 2260 and MATH 3040
Topics in this course include an introduction to the theory of vector spaces, with emphasis on finite-dimensional vector spaces, linear systems, matrices, linear transformations, eigenvalues, and related subjects. Three hours per week.
MATH 4621 Mathematical Statistics I
Credit: 3 hours
Prerequisites: At least a "C" in both MATH 2253 and MATH 3600
This is the first in a two-course sequence. Topics in this course include distributions of random variables; conditional probability and stochastic independence; multivariate and some special distributions; and distributions of functions of random variables. Three hours per week.
MATH 4910 Mathematical Models
Credit: 3 hours
Prerequisite: At least a "C" in both MATH 2253 and MATH 3600
This course is an introduction to basic principles and applications of classical mathematical models, optimization models, and probabilistic models. Three hours per week.
MATH 4920 Senior Seminar
Prerequisites: Student must have completed 90 or more hours.
This seminar course is intended for mathematics majors in the last year of their program. Through lectures, scientific literature, and class discussions, students will be introduced to particular areas of active research. Students will be expected to undertake individual projects which may include oral and/or written presentations and preparation of mini-grant applications. Two hours per week.
