6 courses with the subject MAT, 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.
MAT 143Quantitative Literacy3
This course is designed to engage students in complex and realistic situations involving the mathematical phenomena of quantity, change and relationship, and uncertainty through project- and activity-based assessment. Emphasis is placed on authentic contexts which will introduce the concepts of numeracy, proportional reasoning, dimensional analysis, rates of growth, personal finance, consumer statistics, practical probabilities, and mathematics for citizenship. Upon completion, students should be able to utilize quantitative information as consumers and to make personal, professional, and civic decisions by decoding, interpreting, using, and communicating quantitative information found in modern media and encountered in everyday life. hours. This course may be offered on-campus and/or in an online format. Fall, Spring.
This is an introductory statistics course with an emphasis on using real-world data and statistical literacy. Topics include descriptive statistics, correlation and regression, basic probability, discrete and continuous probability distributions, confidence intervals, and hypothesis testing. Upon completion, students should be able to use appropriate technology to describe important characteristics of a data set, draw inferences about a population from sample data, and interpret and communicate results. hours. This course may be offered on-campus and/or in an online format. Fall - online, Spring – on campus/online, Summer - online.
Emphasis is on equations and inequalities; functions (linear, polynomial, and rational): systems of equations and inequalities; and parametric equations. Upon completion, students should be able to solve practical problems and use appropriate models for analysis and predictions.
High School Algebra II. hours. This course may be offered on-campus and/or in an online format. Fall - on campus, Spring – online, Summer – online.
MAT 172Precalculus Trigonometry3
This course is designed to develop an understanding of topics which are fundamental to the study of Calculus. Emphasis is placed on the analysis of trigonometric functions in multiple representations, right and oblique triangles, vectors, polar coordinates, conic sections, and parametric equations. Upon completion, students should be able to select and use appropriate models and techniques for finding solutions to trigonometry-related problems with and without technology. hours. This course may be offered on-campus and/or in an online format. Fall, Spring. 178
This course is designed to develop the topics of differential and integral calculus. Emphasis is placed on limits, continuity, derivatives, and integrals of algebraic and transcendental functions of one variable. Upon completion, students should be able to select and use appropriate models and techniques for finding solutions to derivative-related problems with and without technology. online format.
