Mathematical logic and proofs are introduced and used to discuss sets, functions, mathematical induction, and countability. Counting methods are covered which include permutations, combinations, and applications to probability. Introductory graph theory topics may include isomorphisms, Euler and Hamiltonian circuits, directed graphs, spanning trees. Computer programming is used to carry out various algorithms throughout the course. Prerequisite: acceptable placement score or grade of C or higher in MATH 112.
Principles, goals, and methods of teaching elementary school and middle school mathematics. Topics include set theory, number systems, whole numbers, number theory and integers and the associated binary operations. Emphasis on problem solving. Offered every semester. Prerequisite: grade of C or higher in 155 or a Math ACT score of 22 or higher. QL
Descriptive statistics, probability, random variables, estimation of parameters, and tests of hypotheses. Inference using bootstrap and randomization distributions as well as the normal, T, chi-square and F distributions. Includes regression, analysis of variance, and multiple regression. Computers are heavily used for data analysis. Prerequisite: acceptable placement score or grade of C or higher in MATH 112. QL
Integration techniques including substitution, by parts, and approximate integration. Applications of integration including area, volume, arc length, surface area, center of mass, and probability. The course also covers differential equations, direction fields, growth models, sequences, and infinite series. Prerequisite: C or higher in 220. QL
Limits, continuity, derivatives, applications, and an introduction to the integral. Differentiation of polynomial, rational, trigonometric, logarithmic and exponential functions. Prerequisite: acceptable placement score, or at least three years of high school algebra and trigonometry with at least a B average, or a grade of C or higher in 113. QL
Overview of foundational math skills for PK-9 (elementary-middle) school teachers. This course is restricted to students in the professional degree completion program.
An investigation of topics such as the history of mathematics, number systems, the mathematics of voting, graph theory, geometry, logic, probability, and statistics. There is an emphasis on problem-solving. Prerequisite: acceptable placement score or successful completion of 091. QL
One hour of lab per week. Develop a basic understanding of programming to manipulate data sets and generate presentation-quality plots.
An introductory course with an emphasis on interpreting results and drawing conclusions from real life data. Topics include summarizing and plotting data, surveys, bias, probability, random variables, sampling distributions, hypothesis testing and confidence intervals for proportions and means, chi-square tests, and linear regression. Prerequisite: acceptable placement score or successful completion of 091. Students who successfully completed 091 are required to take 083 as a co-requisite. QL
This course focuses on the concepts and applications of trigonometry. The primary goal is to prepare students for their calculus course. Topics covered include the basics of the trigonometric functions and their graphs and applications, trigonometric identities and equations, the Law of Sines and Law of Cosines, vectors, complex numbers, conic sections, parametric equations and polar coordinates. Prerequisite: acceptable placement score or grade of C or higher in 111 or 112. QL
