MSEIP Mathematics Enrichment Program (MSEIP-MATH)

TAMIU MSEIP Mathematics Enrichment Program (MSEIP-MATH)
For High School Students Only

This workshop will enable students to develop connections between mathematics and science and help them to be successful in freshmen science and engineering courses. In this workshop, we will start with a review of Algebra and Trigonometry, Calculus I, Calculus II, and Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) using some interesting techniques and activates. The list of topics covered is as follows:

1. Review: In these sessions, we will go over some basic algebra and trigonometry coupled with some activities, which will be helpful in understanding the more advanced topics in Calculus and ODEs.
2. Calculus I: In these sessions, we will start with the concept of functions with some activities to understand functions. Then we move on to the differentiation and integrations of the function with application to over daily life.
3. Calculus II: In these sessions, we will cover the concept of sequences and series and some more integration techniques and their application such as computation of work done in a mass/spring system with some activities.
4. Ordinary Differential Equations: In these sessions, we will look at the application of ordinary differential equations with some mathematical models such as population model, mass/spring system analysis, an electrical circuit including resistance, inductance, and capacitance. These topics will be later discussed in depth in Engineering Statistics, Introduction to Control Systems and some advanced engineering courses. We will discuss the solution techniques and do some activities.

The students' admission to the program will be based on a written essay that contains their opinion about math and its importance to their future career.
