This year the focus is on robotic systems. Finally, we have the mathematics electives. Applied Statistics is a crucial course of the future scientist or mathematician, focusing on the statistical techniques used in research. In Linear Algebra, students learn the theory and practice of matrices and determinates applicable to the sciences, economics, psychology, and engineering. Discrete Mathematics is a course on the subject of non-continuous mathematics, often used in computer science.
Students learn graph theory, probability, linear programming, matrices, and game theory.
Lastly, for the student who finished Analysis II and yearns for more, we have Complex Analysis for particularly advanced mathematical topics involving complex numbers. Aside from the classes and projects, there are other activities for the Magnet student. One of the most popular is the annual Magnet Arts Night, an evening where Magnet students get to show that they are not just future scientists, mathematicians, engineers, and programmers. It is an event eagerly anticipated every year. Magnet students also can show off their talents with Silver Quest, a yearly publication of facts, opinion, art, poetry, and prose.
