You need to come up with a topic next week and pitch it to Dr. Dugan and myself. Note that this meeting must be substantive, so do some research BEFORE you come to the meeting-you need to present your ideas to us. Here are some possible ideas that you can pursue further (don't limit yourself to these-there are a huge number of topics that have math/history/ethical content!):
Artificial intelligence
Cosmology
Insurance
Warfare modeling (e.g., collateral damage, or casualty modeling)
Climate modeling and climate change
Population modeling
Economic modeling
Behavior prediction
Genetics
Traffic modeling
Finance
Math and aesthetics
Evolutionary game theory
Political prediction/modeling
Polling
Testing
Please consult the syllabus for a description of the pitch process.
