MATH 161 - Calculus with DCM II

(3)

IN. A continuation of MATH 160. Calculus topics include integration and applications of integration. This course also introduces students to the development of a Christian worldview and a broad, faith-based engagement with the ambient culture using the history and application of calculus as a case study. So topics also include classical methods of optimization as well as modern applications with its sometimes harmful consequences. Readings common to IDIS 150 sketch out basic biblical themes and help students begin to formulate a Christian frame of reference. This course fulfills the DCM core.
