MA 107 - Introduction to Contemporary Mathematics

Credits: (4 credits)

An introduction to the mathematical way of thinking about the world, with emphasis on ideas and reasoning rather than algebra and arithmetic. Topics will vary with the instructor, but will invariably illustrate problem-solving techniques such as identifying the essential mathematical features of a problem, breaking a difficult problem into simpler parts, and proceeding from the specific to the general.

Notes
No particular mathematical background beyond high school algebra is required.
