Course Information
Mathematics of Art: Presents mathematical connections and foundations for art. Topics vary and may include aspects of linear perspective and vanishing points, symmetry and patterns, tilings and polygons, Platonic solids and polyhedra, golden ratio, non-Euclidean geometry, hyperbolic geometry, fractals, and other topics.
This course will be offered Mondays and Thursdays, 11:45 AM – 1:25 PM at the following location: Found Residence Hall, 525 Lexington Avenue (between E 48th and 49th Street), New York, NY 10017
Calculus for Business and Economics: Provides an overview of differential calculus including derivatives of power, exponential, logarithmic, and logistic functions. Derivatives are used to model rates of change, to estimate change, to optimize functions, and in marginal analysis. The integral calculus is applied to accumulation functions and future value. Emphasis is on realistic business and economics problems, the development of mathematical models from raw business data and the translation of mathematical results into verbal expressions appropriate for the business setting. The course incorporates the use of a graphing calculator.
Two sections of this course will be offered:
- Tuesdays and Fridays, 8:00 AM – 9:40 AM
- Tuesdays and Fridays, 9:50 AM – 11:30 AM
