Math and society 

Dive into the fascinating world of how mathematics underpins the fabric of social interactions and networks in our increasingly connected society. We will explore mathematical concepts through the lens of social structures, from unraveling the dynamics of friendship networks and their evolution to decoding the intricate models of trust and strategic decision-making found in game theory. This course is an immersive journey into the mathematical backbone of social phenomena. Our overall aim will be to offer hands-on research experience: students will have the unique opportunity to select topics of interest, conduct research, and develop their findings into a comprehensive academic article with close guidance. This process will enhance their understanding of the subject matter and refine their skills in academic writing and presentation. Engaging with a diverse range of topics, including network theory, probability, statistics, and linear algebra, students will learn to model, analyze, and predict social phenomena, culminating in creating and presenting their own articles.
