MATH 77
Special Projects in Mathematics
Course Description
In this course students will engage in an independent or collaborative project in mathematics under the close supervision of a faculty member, focusing on a fundamental problem within their discipline. This course emphasizes the development of research skills. Students will identify or formulate a research question based on their understanding of the discipline, apply skills and techniques learned in their coursework to conduct their research project, and produce a professional capstone product, such as a report or portfolio, that reflects their systematic and in-depth inquiry. The capstone product will be developed in close collaboration with the faculty member and must be approved by the faculty member and/or the department. Students will also demonstrate in writing how their work contributes to the discovery and interpretation of knowledge significant to their field of study, present their findings in a properly formatted, professionally rigorous document or other appropriate capstone product, and formally present their capstone product to faculty and/or peers during an approved date and time.
