T-Research

In this course students work in small groups on original research projects. Students are expected to attend a brief presentation of projects at the start of the semester. Recent topics include interactions between algebra and graph theory, plant patterns, knot theory and mathematical modeling. This course is open to all students interested in gaining research experience in mathematics. Prerequisites vary depending on the project, but normally MTH 153 and MTH 211 are required.

Weight Training

Weight Training: Students in this course will practice and learn the basics of using weighted and unweighted exercise to train flexibility/mobility, strength, speed, endurance and coordination. Students will design and receive feedback on an individualized weight training program. Each class session will include cardio warmup, stretching, and weight lifting. Participants who have never been involved in a fitness program are especially welcome, along with experienced students of weight training methods. The instructor for the Fall 2023 Weight Training class will be John Snyder.

Strength and Conditioning

Strength and Conditioning: Students in this course will experience and experiment with static & dynamic stretching, body-weight and weighted exercises, and natural-terrain-based movement. Each class session will include exercises to improve one's physical strength, power, flexibility, balance and coordination. Movement may include: walking, running, balancing, climbing, lifting, carrying, throwing, jumping, and more. The class is appropriate for those interested in improving functional strength and mobility for sports.

T-Ecological Forecasting

Ecologists are asked to respond to unprecedented environmental challenges. How can they provide the best scientific information about what will happen in the future? The goal of this seminar is to bring together the concepts and tools needed to make ecology a more predictive science. Topics include Bayesian calibration and the complexities of real-world data; uncertainty quantification, partitioning, propagation and analysis; feedback from models to measurements; state-space models and data fusion; iterative forecasting and the forecast cycle; and decision support.
