15 courses with the subject MATH, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
MATH 101| Introduction to College Math
A course in introductory algebra including a brief review of operations with integers and rational numbers. Major topics include an introduction to operations with polynomials, linear equations and inequalities in one variable, problem-solving, factoring, exponents, rational expressions, graphing, equations of a line, square roots and quadratic equations in one variable. The course carries three college credits. It does not satisfy the mathematics requirements for any degree. This course is not open to students who have successfully completed MATH 101X, MATH 103 or higher. Placement based on high school or college transcript. [Fall, Spring] Liberal Arts/Science Elective [3 credits] [3 contact hours]
A study of functions and their properties and applications from algebra and trigonometry. Topics include linear, quadratic, polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions. Use of a graphing calculator may be an integral part of the course. Prerequisite: Placement per high school transcript - three units of high school math including at least some work in Course III, Math B, Algebra II, or their equivalent is recommended, MATH 111, or by permission of the Mathematics Department.

Topics in foundations of mathematics may include: problem solving strategies, set theory, whole number properties/operations/models/algorithms, numeration systems, positional systems, number theory, integers, fractions, rational numbers, decimals, real numbers, proportions. Note: this course does NOT satisfy General Education Requirements. Prerequisite: MATH 111. [Fall, Spring] [3 credits] [3 contact hours]
A course designed to provide the necessary foundation for a standard calculus course. The focus of pre-calculus is the concept of a function with special emphasis on graphing functions. Topics include types of functions, graphing techniques, properties and graphs of polynomials and rational functions, exponential and logarithmic functions, and trigonometric functions. A graphing calculator may be required. Not recommended for students with four units of high school mathematics. Not open to students with credit for Calculus I except by permission of the Mathematics Department. permission of the Mathematics Department. [Fall, Spring] Gen Ed Mathematics (and Quantitative Reasoning), Liberal Arts/Sciences Elective [4 credits] [4 contact hours]
