Entrepreneurship Consulting and Analysis
This course provides students an opportunity to practice action learning. Many instructors are advocates of action learning because they believe students can learn by doing. In this course, students will complete a project for a local entrepreneur. The project may be highly specialized or comprehensive in nature, depending upon the needs of the business.
Home Energy Analysis
This is the second part of a two-part exercise in which students perform an audit and analysis of energy consumption in their homes. In this part, students will estimate the amount of energy they use in their homes and investigate how their lifestyle impact the environment.

Data Analysis
The applet in this section allows for simple data analysis of univariate data. Users can either generate normal or uniform data for k samples or copy and paste data from another source to a text box. A univariate analysis is performed for all k samples.
Functional analysis
As taught in 2006-2007 and 2007-2008.
Functional analysis begins with a marriage of linear algebra and metric topology. These work together in a highly effective way to elucidate problems arising from differential equations. Solutions are sought in an infinite dimensional space of functions.
This module paves the way by establishing the principal theorems (all due in part to the great Polish mathematician Stefan Banach) and exploring their diverse consequences. Topics to be covered will inclu
