Semester Offered: Second Semester
Full Course
Credits: 4 Credits
Attribute: 4NS, QFR

This course takes a modern approach to geometry based on group theory and the Erlangen Programm making possible the survey of a wide spectrum of geometries, Euclidean and non-Euclidean. Geometries treated include neutral, Euclidean, spherical, and hyperbolic. The discovery of these geometries in the 19th century caused a scientific and philosophical revolution second only to the Copernican revolution.
