The Minor in Mathematics requires the Calculus series plus linear algebra, and upper division courses in either the Math Major or the Data & Applied Science Core
(1) Propositional logic: Axioms and Rules of Inference. Limitations of propositional logic: Informal introduction to quantifiers and syllogisms.
 
(2) Predicate Logic: Existential and universal quantification, free variables and substitutions. Discussion of the various axiomatic systems for first-order logic (including axioms and rules of inference). The power and the limitations of axiomatic systems for logic: Informal discussion of the completeness and incompleteness theorems.
 
(3) Sets and boolean algebras: Operations on sets. Correspondence between finitary set operations and propositional logic. Correspondence between infinitary operations and quantifiers. The power and limitations of the language of set theory: Informal discussion of the set-theoretic paradoxes and the need for axiomatic systems for set theory.
 
(4) Relations: Special relations: Equivalence relations, partially ordered sets, maximum/minimum, maximal/minimal elements, least upper bounds and greatest lower bounds, totally ordered sets.
 
(5) Functions: Operations of functions, direct image and inverse image.
 
(6) Well-ordered sets: Correspondence between well-ordering relations and induction. Correspondence between well-ordering relations and choice functions.
 
(7) Introduction to computability. Classical models of computation (recursive functions, and Turing models). Limitations of computation (the Halting Problem, fast-growing functions). Contemporary models of computation.
