Objective of Mathematics Course
Master
- Foundational to advanced STEM topics: Algebra, geometry, calculus, statistics, and quantitative aptitude.
Analyze
- Islamic contributions: Study works of Al-Khwarizmi, Al-Biruni, and Omar Khayyam, and their impact on modern mathematics.
Apply
- Sacred geometry: Explore the Golden Ratio, symmetry, and geometric patterns in Islamic art and architecture.
Develop
- Problem-solving skills: Through hands-on projects, real-world applications, and research on Fields Medal-winning advancements.
Complete
- A capstone project: Integrate Islamic mathematical heritage with modern STEM (e.g., algorithmic design inspired by Al-Khwarizmi).
