Course Description
This course provides students with the basic tools to model dynamic situations in the social and physical sciences. The first part of the course discusses applications to derivatives and integrals, optimization in one and two variables and basic linear algebra. The second half of the course examines systems of difference and differential equations. The focus of the course throughout will be on applications to economics and natural phenomena. (This course is a requirement for the Economics major and satisfies the second math requirement or the Intermediate requirement for the Interdisciplinary Science major.) It is offered every fall.
