In this paper we describe an interdisciplinary course on dynamics that is appropriate for nonscience majors. This course introduces ideas about mathematical modeling using examples based on pendulums, chemical kinetics, and population dynamics. The unique emphasis for a nonmajors course is on chemical reactions as dynamical systems that do more…

This paper presents a high-level course in computing for non-majors offered at Queens College (New York). The course focuses on the acquisition and presentation of data and information. For data acquisition, the course will give the students high-level mastery of the Internet. For the presentation of information, the students will learn multimedia…
