Nonlinear Dynamical Systems — MAT4127.01

Instructor: Katie Montovan
Days & Time: MO,TH 10:00am-11:50am
Credits: 4

Differential equations are a powerful and pervasive mathematical tool in the sciences and are fundamental in pure mathematics as well. Almost every system whose components interact continuously over time can be modeled by a differential equation, and differential equation models and analyses of these systems are common in the literature in many fields including physics, ecology, biology, astronomy, and economics.

Statistics for Social Science — SOC4103.01

Instructor: Emily Waterman
Days & Time: MO,TH 1:40pm-3:30pm
Credits: 4

In this course students will learn to use social science statistics to test their own research questions, while becoming more educated consumers of statistical analyses presented in research and news sources. Students will employ various inferential statistics techniques commonly used in social science, such as confidence intervals, t-tests, chi-square testing, correlation, ANOVA, and regression. Students will manage and analyze data using the Stata statistical software package.
