Introductory statistics courses, which are required by many empirical social sciences, cover the former, but leave one unacquainted with the calculus needed to build models. Math departmental courses, on the other hand, are heavy on calculus, usually so much so that students...
...man’s land, the Faculty should aim to develop a foundational course required of all students not exempt from their QR requirement. Such a course would be devoted to equipping students with both the statistical vocabulary and the higher math techniques needed to navigate both policy- and model-oriented courses. Taken during students’ first year, this course would prepare students for the twenty-first century...
...Business School, writing papers about the issues related with management of engineering schools and research institutes, which he said “require a different kind of culture and mindset.”Venky has big hopes for SEAS, envisioning it as highly interdisciplinary—a model engineering school aimed at the broadly educated. One University planner, Associate Provost for Science Kathleen M. Buckley said recently that the school may get its own building in Allston.“We can do more in engineering by having an engineering school that connects, really bridges, literally and metaphorically to strengths...
