How To Read This Section:
The number of credits for a particular course is shown as (i.e. ANTH 101-3.0. The 3.0 after the course number is the credit value. At the end of the course description is (3,0,0) - the 1st number is lecture hours per week, 2nd number is lab hours per week and 3rd number is seminar hours per week.)
In general, a one semester, 3 hour per week course is equivalent to 3 credit hours and a science course consisting of 3 hours per week lecture and 3 hours per week laboratory is also equivalent to 3 credit hours.
Unless otherwise noted, “Permission of Instructor” may be used to accept a student into a course(s) when the student does not meet course prerequisites and/or does not attain the required threshold on entry assessments. See the “Admission & Registration” section for details on this policy.

MATH 101-3.0: Calculus I: Differential Calculus
Introduction to the fascinating theory and powerful techniques of calculus, tailored to the needs of students intending to major in science or engineering. The topics treated include limits, derivatives, techniques of differentiation, related rates, curve sketching, optimization, root finding, differentials, and trigonometric, logarithmic and exponential functions. (4.5,0,0)
Prerequisites: C or better in Principles of Math 12 or MATH 111 or MATH 0501/0502. Calculus 12 is recommended.
|
MATH 102-3.0: Calculus II: Integral Calculus
Introduces the notion of integration, and applies the process to solve problems such as those of calculating the areas of regions with curved boundaries and the volumes of solids enclosed by curved surfaces, averaging quantities which vary in time, and determining completely specific expressions for functions when only relations among their rates of change are given. Students reaching the end of the course will be rewarded with a look at the theory of infinite series. (4.5,0,0)
Prerequisites: A grade of C or better in MATH 101 or its equivalent
|
MATH 103-3.0: Differential Calculus with Applications
Mathematics 103 is a one semester differential calculus course with special emphasis on function properties, function sketching and applications. Topics in this course include: limits, first and second derivatives, implicit derivatives, L’Hopital’s rule and differentials. The emphasis in the discussion of these topics is on function properties and function sketching. Function properties emphasized include domain, range, symmetry, periodicity, intercepts, asymptotes, slope and curvature. Function types considered in this course include: linear, quadratic, polynomial, rational, root, exponential, logarithm, trigonometric, inverse trigonometric, elliptic and hyperbolic. Applications will be taken from Physics, Chemistry, Biology and the Earth Sciences depending upon the background and interests of the student body and will include optimization, related rates and linear approximations.
Prerequisites: Principles of Math 12 or MATH 111 or MATH 0501/0502 with Calculus 12 recommended.
