Two "Math in the City" courses in the Department of Mathematics this semester feature group projects related to the mathematical modeling of COVID-19 will be presented online November 19 and 20 via Zoom.
The projects in "MATH 435: Math in the City" and "MATH 816T: Math in the City for Teacher" use mathematical modeling to examine problems of interest to organizations outside of the university. Students planning to take MATH 435 can see what kinds of projects can be completed.
