Written presentation of an original research topic in Data Science which demonstrates the knowledge & capability to conduct independent research. The thesis shall be completed under the supervision of a faculty advisor. An oral examination in defense is required.

Calculus-based introduction to classical mechanics, emphasizing problem solving. Topics include 1- and 2-dimensional kinematics and dynamics; Newton's Laws of Motion; work, energy and momentum; and rotational motion and angular momentum. Many of these topics are further explored in laboratory experiments.
