I am taking this for my minor as well as to look at mathematics from a different perspective. I am an A&AE major and I specialize in Design and Fluid Dynamics, so much of my life is the application of functions rather than the derivation of such. I must also resist the huge temptation to just use MatLab and the Law of Large Numbers to solve all the homework... So far I've resisted. | I am taking this for my minor as well as to look at mathematics from a different perspective.

Discuss why you are taking this class, what your goals are in college, and your dreams in life.
I really like this RHEA page. It has been super helpful for this class. I am really happy that he made us use it a few times. I will prolly keep doing it for help!
I am taking this class because I am a math ed. major and some high schools teach a discrete math course. Because of this, I figured that I should take this course, even though we will go way more in depth than a high school class.
I'm taking this class because I haven't taken a discrete math course before. I'm a mathematics major, but there is no particular area that I prefer over others so far. Since it's just undergrad, I figure its best to try everything and see what I like. I'm dual majoring in biology, but I kind of wish I could pick up more majors and still graduate on time. Pretty much every field of science interests me. As for my dreams in life, I'm not really sure. I kind of take everything on a day-to-day basis because so far, I haven't found anything that really inspires me enough to want to do it for a living.
I'm taking this class because I needed one more technical elective before I could graduate with a degree in mechanical engineering. When I first came to college my goal was just to graduate on time with a good GPA so I could get a job and make lots of money. But that changed as I began to seek God more. My goal has since been to glorify God in any way that I can and to share God's plan of grace that he has provided to us through Jesus Christ. :)
I am extremely curious as to how that leads to studying discrete mathematics.
TQU: I'm taking this course because it is required. I want to be a teacher in the future, and I have always wanted to be a good teacher. Discrete mathematics challenges our logical thinkings about numbers. It is helpful to know for higher mathematics.
