MATH 1501 - Calculus I (4-0-4)
This course is a study of algebraic, trigonometric, logarithmic, and exponential
functions including limits, continuity, the derivative, and differentiation, the definite
integral, and applications.
Prerequisite(s): A grade of C or better inMATH 1112, MATH 1112A, MATH1113 or a
suitablemathematics placement score.
MATH 2020 - IntroductoryDiscreteMathematics (3-0-3)
This course is a study of the concepts of finite mathematical structures. Topics
include set theory, logic, proof techniques, functions and relations, graphs, trees, and
combinatorics.
Prerequisite(s): A grade of C or better in MATH 1112, MATH 1112A, MATH 1113,
MATH 1221, or MATH1501.
MATH 2140 - IntroductoryLinear Algebra (3-0-3)
This course is an introduction tomatrix algebra including determinants, vector spaces,
linear transformations, and eigenvectors.
Prerequisite(s): A grade of C or better in MATH 1501 or a grade of D or better in
MATH2502 (Can be taken concurrently).
MATH2502 - Calculus II (4-0-4)
This course is a study of algebraic and transcendental functions with an emphasis on
integral calculus and sequences and series. Other topics from single variable calculus
include parametric equations and polar coordinates. Applications focus on functions
whichmodel real-world situations.
Prerequisite(s): A grade of C or better inMATH 1501.
MATH2503 - Calculus III (4-0-4)
This course is a study of three-dimensional analytic geometry, the calculus of vector-
valued functions and multivariable calculus. Topics include vector-valued functions,
their derivatives, integrals, and applications; limits, continuity, partial derivatives, and
extrema of multivariable functions; multiple and line integrals.
Prerequisite(s) A grade of C or better inMATH2502.
MATH 3003 - AppliedMathematical Modeling (3-0-3)
This course is an introduction to the creation and use of mathematical models.
Mathematical techniques will be developed and applied to real systems in areas
including chemistry, biology, physics and economics. Students will be expected to
make written and oral presentations in a professional manner. This course will
emphasize the creation and testing of models and discussions of errors and
forecasting. Students will work onprojects singly and as part of a group.
Prerequisite: Agrade of C or better inMATH 1501.
MATH 3005 - ATransition toAdvancedMathematics (3-0-3)
This course is designed to prepare the student for advanced courses inmathematics.
Topics include logic, set theory, properties of integers and mathematical induction,
relations, and functions.
Prerequisite(s): A grade of C or better in MATH 2502 andMATH 2140. Or a grade of
C or better inMATH 2502 andMATH2020.
MATH 3006 –Communications inMathematics (1-0-1)
Several techniques for effective public speaking and effectivemathematical writingwill
be presented. Students will learn to use the tools that professional mathematicians
use in the preparation of their research for publication and presentation at
conferences.
Prerequisite(s): A grade of C or better inMATH3005. (Can be taken concurrently.)
