MAT 195-01 - Introductory Special Topic: Discovering the Art of Mathematics

4 credits (Spring)
What is the mathematics of music? Can you mathematically determine if two jumbled-up (but separate) knots are really the same knot (or not)? Can all maps be properly shaded with four colors? Assuming no math background beyond basic arithmetic, this course will explore a host of topics involving numbers, puzzles and games. With a spirit of curiosity and exploration, the engaging and beautiful world of mathematics will be brought alive.

Prerequisite: None.
