Mathematics

Information

Are you interested in Mathematics? If so then a Group 5: Mathematics EE may be for you. In order to write a Group 4: Mathematics EE your essay should focus on:

• the applicability of mathematics to solve both real and abstract problems
• the beauty of mathematics—eg geometry or fractal theory
• the elegance of mathematics in the proving of theorems—eg number theory
• the history of mathematics: the origin and subsequent development of a branch of mathematics over a period of time, measured in tens, hundreds or thousands of years
• the effect of technology on mathematics, in forging links between different branches of mathematics, or in bringing about a new branch of mathematics, or causing a particular branch to flourish.

Your Mathematics EE cannot be an extension or a duplication of your Mathematics IA.
