The objectives of this course are to learn to apply mathematical tools to solve open-ended, real-world problems, to understand the benefits and limitations of mathematical modelling, and to critically assess the predictions based on mathematical models, as well as to stimulate interest in studying more advanced mathematics topics (e.g. numerical analysis, differential equations, probability and statistics, and optimization.) Prerequisite: MATH 2120, MATH 2240
