Excellence of Innovation in Learning Mathematics and Statistics with Programming

Students must have completed at least one mathematics or statistics course (calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, or statistics) from the Mathematics Division in which programming was used as part of the method of instruction either as an embedded component or a paired course. Programming could include a computer algebra system like Maple or Mathematica or an object-oriented programming language like Python, Matlab, R, or C++. The student must have grades of B or higher in all such courses.

Supplemental Questions
  1. Have you taken any calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, or statistics course from the Mathematics Division in which programming, such as Python or another language, was used as a method of instruction and for assignments? The programming could be embedded in the course or paired with a lab course, such as MATH 005AL, MATH 005BL, or STAT 65.
  2. Did you receive a B or higher in this mathematics or statistics course with programming taken in the Mathematics Division?
  3. Please write a short essay about your experience learning math or statistics with programming (the course must be taken in the Mathematics Division) and your plan of using mathematical or statistical programming skills.
  4. Please upload a sample of your original work, such as a project or assignment, that clearly shows the code and text from the qualified courses (a math class taken in the Mathematics Division) and why you chose it.
