 COURSE SYLLABUS

1. Course No. GEC 2

2. Course Name Mathematics in the Modern World
3. Course Description This course deals with nature of mathematics, appreciation of its practical, intellectual, and aesthetic
dimensions, and application of mathematical tool in daily life. The course begins with an introduction to
the nature of mathematics as an exploration of patterns (in nature and the environment) and as an
application of inductive and deductive reasoning. By exploring these topics, students are encouraged to
go beyond the typical understanding of mathematics as merely a set of formulas but as a source of
aesthetics in patterns of nature, for example, and a rich language in itself(and of science) governed by
logic and reasoning. The course then proceeds to survey ways in which mathematics provides a tool for
understanding and dealing with various aspects of present day living, such as managing personal finances,
making social choices, appreciating geometric designs, understanding codes used in data transmission
and security, and dividing limited resources fairly.
