A Symbolic, Numerical and Graphical Computations Lab to Support a Revised Curriculum in Calculus and Differential Equations

工程学院数学系 罗斯-休曼理工学院将为所有 大一和大一学生的实验室，符号，数字和 图形计算 SUN工作站和计算机代数系统MACSYMA将在 的模式和方法论的根本变化， 微积分和微分序列。 重点是 强调“数学”影响工程课程 实验”通过使用强大的研究工具， 行业 受赠人提供从非联邦政府获得的等额资金， 源

The Department of Mathematics at the engineering institution Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology will establish for all freshman and sophomores a laboratory for symbolic, numerical and graphical computations. SUN work stations and the computer algebra system MACSYMA will be the basis radical change in the mode and methodology of the calculus and differential calculus sequences. The emphasis is to impact the engineering curriculum by stressing "mathematical experimentation" by use of powerful research tools used in industry. The grantee is providing an equal sum obtained fron non-Federal sources.
