4302. Advanced Calculus II 3 hours
A continuation of MAT 4301. Line integrals, point-set theory, Balzano-Weierstrass theorem, Cauchy's convergence criteria, Heine-Borel theorem, continuity and sequential limits, Riemann-Stieltjes integrals, sequences of functions, uniform continuity, and power series.
4310. Functions of a Complex Variable 3 hours
Complex numbers, functions, limits and continuity, Cauchy-Riemann equations, related theorems, Laurent series, residue theorem, conformal mapping and applications.
4311H. Mathematics Honors Seminar I: Contemporary 3 hours Research in Mathematics
Prerequisite: Acceptance into the Math Honors Program
Students, under the direction of a mathematics faculty member, will select a current mathematics research topic and research it in journals, study it, write paper, oral presentation for math faculty. The student will meet with the professor at least once a week to discuss the project. This course will not count towards the 36 hours of math required for math degree.
4312H. Mathematics Honors Seminar II: History 3 hours of Mathematics
Prerequisite: Acceptance into the Math Honors Program
Students, under the direction of mathematics faculty member, will become familiar with broad history of mathematics. Student will select one period, topic, or individual to study in depth. Student will write paper and do oral presentation for math faculty. The student will meet with the professor at least once a week to discuss the project. This course will not count towards the 36 hours of math required for math degree.
4313H. Mathematics Honors Seminar III: Philosophy 3 hours of Mathematics
Prerequisite: Acceptance into the Math Honors Program
Students, under the direction of mathematics faculty member, will study the different philosophical aspects of mathematics and study individuals who have contributed to philosophy of mathematics. Students will then select a topic, research, study, write paper, and do oral presentation for math faculty. The student will meet with the professor at least once a week to discuss the project. This course will not count towards the 36 hours of math required for math degree.
4320. Introduction to Topology 3 hours
Prerequisite: MAT 2331
An introduction to the basic concepts of topology with emphasis on axiomatic treatment of linearly ordered spaces and metric spaces.
Prerequisites: MAT 1325, MAT 3311, MAT 3341, successful completion of EDU 2300
Examines the pedagogy appropriate for the secondary mathematics classroom, provides methods to integrate such pedagogy into the classroom, provides a foundation for developing an understanding of pedagogy fundamental to learning high school mathematics and helps teachers develop expertise in the processes emphasized in the NCTM Standards and TEKS.
