Cross-listed with Math 513. A basic introduction to combinatorics and graph theory for advanced students in computer science, mathematics, and related fields. Topics include elements of graph theory, Euler and Hamiltonian circuits, graph coloring, matching, basic counting methods; generating functions; recurrences; inclusion-exclusion; Polya's theory of counting. Prerequisites: mathematical maturity; calculus; linear algebra; discrete mathematics course such as Comp-Sci 250 or Math 455. Math 411 recommended but not required.

Programming mobile iOS apps, using Swift and Xcode. Exploratory assignments, student-defined, semester-long, app-building project, and student-led presentations and discussions of independent research into APIs. No exams. This course counts as a CS Elective toward the CS major (BS/BA).

Basic problems in the translation of programming languages focusing on theory and common implementation techniques for compiling traditional (Pascal-like) programming languages to produce assembly or object code for typical machines. Involves a substantial laboratory project in which the student constructs a working compiler for a considerable subset of a realistic programming language within a provided skeleton.

First semester of a full year course for students in the BioTAP program. The lecture component of the course is a case-study-based learning environment, designed to acquaint the student with the fundamental principles and processes of biological systems. Subjects include the basics of chemistry pertinent to biology, biochemistry and cell biology, genetics and molecular biology. The lab component of the course is a rigorous introduction to molecular biology techniques, as well as developing lab notebook writing skills and scientific reporting skills.

Discussion, guided conversation in Spanish on specific topics. Emphasis on further development of listening and speaking skills.

Biology of nerve cells and cellular interactions in nervous systems. Lectures integrate structural, functional, molecular, and developmental approaches. Topics include neuronal anatomy and physiology, neural induction and pattern formation, development of neuronal connections, membrane potentials and neuronal signals, synapses, sensory systems, control of movement, systems neuroscience and neural plasticity. With Biology 494LI, this course satisfies the Integrative Experience requirement for BS-Biol majors.

This course is divided into 3 parts. Each part will include content-based learning in which we examine several aspects of cell biology using lectures, discussion of experimental results and materials from the textbook. Topics will include exocytosis, actin & microtubule cytoskeleton, motors, and mitosis. Each part will also include inquiry-based learning where you will work in groups on a short research project to understand the cellular and molecular basis of a human genetic disease.
