A difficult course, but rewarding. Do the readings and homework to succeed. There is no textbook but it is a good idea to do your own research and extra reading to succeed.

In its current iteration as Mathematical Models in Knowledge Integration, this is a math course for people that love math. You cover a variety of higher-level math concepts using high school math as a base level. Pay attention to what you're doing – this math course isn't like anything you've taken before. Requires extensive effort, but the final project WILL bring up your final mark significantly.

I took this course on "Creative Thinking", and it was fantastic! It has it's own course code now...

u/TheFinnstagator: “Fine 204/Integ 275: the art, science and history of colour. It was a really interesting course thanks to Linda Carson, the professor. She is very knowledgable about all of the content and really makes you want to learn it!”
