1976–77

No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1976–77 to 1976–77 (before that, 1972–73 used the number for Applications of Mathematics to the Biological Sciences); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.

Properties of real numbers including inequalities and absolute value. Systems of equations in two and three variables including linear, quadratic, and cubic equations. Complex numbers and polar representation. Exponents. Permutations and combinations. The Binomial Theorem. Sequences and series. 2 hours lectures.

As printed in the 1976–77 calendar, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.

    Another title: Applications of Mathematics to the Biological Sciences, probably a different course under the same number (or a misread scan).

    The aim of Mathematics 302 is mainly to acquaint Mathematics students with the fundamentals of the Biological Sciences, so that the student can see how his discipline can interact with the Biological Sciences. Subject areas such as probability, design of experiments, distributions, data processing, differential equations, and their applications in the Biological Sciences, will form part of the course. Two lectures per week for two terms.
