RESEARCH AND WRITING IN CS & MATHEMATICS in Fall 2025 (MA3050)

One of the most critical factors in the success of an idea is effective communication.

This course addresses written communication in different contexts for both Computer Science and Mathematics.

Students will learn to choose the appropriate styles for different audiences (e.g. textbooks, articles/reviews, posters, general public, professional colleagues).
They will be asked to research and report on small practical tasks in bot CS and Math, such as proof, empiric complexity analysis of algorithmic strategies, data analysis and visualization and software documentation, producing well structured and formatted documents. Along the way, they will learn to use mark-up languages (such as LaTeX and markdown) and dedicated software for plotting and graphics editing.
