MAT 101Math for the Liberal Arts3
A survey of mathematics including sets, probability, descriptive statistics, and other contemporary math topics.
A study of the basic terminology and methods of elementary statistics including organization of data, measures of central tendency and dispersion, sampling theory, estimation, and testing of hypotheses. Also includes an introduction to correlation and linear regression. Students may not receive credit in both MAT 102 and MAT 201.

Also includes an introduction to correlation and linear regression. Students may not receive credit in both MAT 102 and MAT 201. MAT 102Y includes an extra hour per week of supplemental instruction.
This course is designed for students who have mastered the basic skills of arithmetic and elementary algebra, but are not adequately prepared for Business Calculus I (MAT 107) or Precalculus (MAT 109). Topics include exponents; scientific notation; graphing; polynomial arithmetic and factoring; linear, fractional, and quadratic expressions and equations; linear equalities; measurement geometry; and trigonometry. Course does not satisfy the mathematics requirement in the distribution component.
An introduction to calculus with primary emphasis on applications to business and economics. Topics include algebra, problem solving, functions including exponential and logarithmic, mathematics of finance, systems of linear equations, differentiation, and applications of differentiation.
A study of basic properties of algebra and trigonometry together with algebraic functions, transcendental functions, and analytic geometry. Emphasis will be on providing students with the background necessary to begin the formal calculus sequence.
A completely integrated computer-based course in which Excel is used to study statistical methods as applied to business, including descriptive statistics, probability sampling, hypothesis testing, and statistical inference. Students may not receive credit in both MAT 102 and MAT 201.
A continuation of MAT 102 including estimating and testing the difference between means, proportions, and variances. An introduction to analysis of variance, regression analysis, and nonparametric statistics. Students may not receive credit in both MAT 202 and BUS 231.
A look at the topics of K-5 mathematics including numbers and operation of whole through rational numbers, algebraic thinking, geometry, measurement, and data analysis with an emphasis on understanding the mathematical concepts being taught. Students must demonstrate proficiency in the basic arithmetic and geometry skills covered in the course. Course is intended for students anticipating careers in elementary education.
An introduction to mathematical problem solving. Primary focus will be using geometry, trigonometry, probability, and calculus to model various topics from business, biology, physics, social sciences, engineering, and recreational mathematics.
An introduction to probability including probabilistic experiments and their sample spaces, random variables and their probability distributions, and functions of random variables and their properties. An introduction to the methods of inferential statistics.
A continuation of the methods of inferential statistics. Topics include introductory sampling theory, estimation, confidence intervals and hypothesis testing, experimental design, and analysis of variance. Some nonparametric statistics also introduced.
A look at the topics of grades 5-8 mathematics including, numbers and operation of rational through real numbers, algebra, geometry, measurement, and probability with an emphasis on understanding the mathematical concepts being taught. Students must demonstrate proficiency in the basic arithmetic and geometry skills covered in the course. Course is intended for students anticipating careers in elementary or middle school education.
Individual research of a substantive nature pursued in the students major field of study. The research will conclude in a written thesis or an original project, and an oral defense.

A study of complex numbers, complex sequences, complex functions, analytic functions, differentiation and integration of complex functions, and conformal mapping.
An introduction to the history of mathematics emphasizing the evolution of basic concepts ranging from primitive number systems through the foundations of set theory. These concepts will be studied via pertinent problems and the tools available for their solution when they were originally introduced.

A junior or senior work-study program providing relevant employment experience. Registration will occur at the beginning of the experience. The objective of the program is to integrate classroom theory and practical work experience, thus lending relevancy to learning, and providing the student with a realistic exposure to career opportunities. Students interested in an internship or co-op should talk to their adviser.
