Course
Descriptions
The
courses described below are offered by the Department of Mathematical
Sciences of the
McMicken
College of Arts & Sciences,
University of
Cincinnati. These descriptions should
not be construed as syllabi for the courses. Each description includes the
course name, the course number, credit hours, prerequisites* and/or co-requisites, and textbook title(s), when available. See the Course Planning Guide for when courses are offered.
*Prerequisite Policy: A class must be passed with a minimum grade of C- to satisfy a prerequisite for any MATH or STAT course.
Explanation of Course Numbers
Each course number is a nine-character University code. The first two digits
specify the college offering the course (“15” = College of Arts &
Sciences); the next four letters indicate the area of study; the final three
digits identify the specific course. Honors classes are designated by an “H” in
the course number. Course numbers of 500 or higher are typically graduate-level
classes.

An axiomatic treatment of synthetic geometry is given,
beginning with a development of neutral geometry. Neutral geometry is
geometry without the Parallel Postulate, so the theorems of neutral
geometry are valid in both hyperbolic and Euclidean geometry. The formal
development of Euclidean geometry begins with the addition of the Parallel
Postulate. The main tools in Euclidean geometry are congruence and
similarity of figures; triangles, quadrilaterals, and circles are studied
in detail.

Vector methods provide and alternate context for developing
geometry. The vector algebraic approach brings together linear algebra,
geometry, and trigonometry. Affine geometry is studied in the context of
vector spaces, the inner product is added to the
vector space axioms for the study of Euclidean geometry. Transformations
give a third method to treat geometry and illustrate connections between
geometry, linear algebra, and abstract algebra. Affine transformations are
used to investigate affine geometry. Isometries
and similarities are used for the study of Euclidean geometry. Symmetry is
considered in terms of the group of rigid motions that leave invariant a
geometric figure. Transformation groups and symmetry groups provide
connections with abstract algebra.

Students enrolled in
this course will participate in the statistical consulting mission of the
Statistical Consulting Laboratory of the Department of Mathematical
Sciences. Under the guidance of the director(s) of the Lab, students will
typically work in teams of two on projects brought to the lab by other
researchers from on- and off-campus. Students will be expected to interact
with these researchers. A significant amount of class time will be devoted
to learning new statistical techniques necessary for particular projects,
as well as developing consulting and presentation skills.
