Title: Integrating Mathematical and Biological Concepts
Courses: BSC 1085 and 1086, MAT 0012, MAC 1105, MGF 1106

Project description: Modular curriculum guides were developed that integrate mathematical and biological concepts. These guides can be used in mathematics courses to illustrate biological applications or in biology courses to reinforce mathematics as a tool used in scientific analysis and to explain biological phenomena. Each modular unit incorporates background information from both a mathematical and biological perspective and engages students with various assignments.
