Abstract

In this course, we will try to introduce beginning cognitive scientists to more of the kinds of mathematics and mathematical reasoning that will be useful to them if they continue to live, grow and learn within this area. In our twenty first century world, there is a tight integration between the areas of mathematics, computer science and science. Now a traditional Calculus course for the engineering and physical sciences consists of a four semester sequence as shown in TableĀ 1.1.
