Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science

Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science introduces students to the discrete mathematics needed later in their Computer Science coursework with theory of computation topics interleaved throughout. Students learn about mathematical concepts just in time to apply them to theory of computation ideas.

Ashwin Lall is Associate Professor of Computer Science at Denison University. He joined the Denison faculty in 2010. Prior to this, he was a postdoctoral researcher at Georgia Tech, a Ph.D. student and Sproull fellow at the University of Rochester, and a math/computer science double major at Colgate University. Dr. Lall has taught all the existing flavors of the introductory Computer Science course as well as advanced topics such as Theory of Computation and Design/Analysis of Algorithms. He also enjoys teaching the Game Design elective in the CS major.
