28 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 1000ELEMENTARY ALGEBRA3
A study of fundamental concepts in basic mathematics, including fractions, factoring, graphing variables, inequalities, equations, real numbers, and functions, for students deficient in high school mathematics required for college admission. (Cannot be used for distribution requirement.) *Hours do not count toward total semester hour graduation requirement.
A rigorous and quick-paced study of the algebraic properties of the real numbers, including equations (linear and quadratic) and inequalities, functions (polynomials, rational, exponential, and logarithmic), and systems of equations.
An introduction to mathematical models including topics such as graph theory, scheduling problems, linear programming, coding theory, voting techniques, symmetry and patterns, consumer finance models, and logic.
A study of how mathematical ideas play a role in non-traditional societies, to include graph theory, logic and set theory, symmetry and patterns, group theory, and game theory applied to areas such as religion, social relations, art, calendar modeling, and storytelling aspects.
A broad study of number sense including set theory, logic, systems of numeration, number theory and the real number system, and basic algebra, graphs, and functions. A student will not receive General Education credit in Math for both MATH 1120 and MATH 1100.
MATH 1125MATHEMATICS FOR HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS3
A study of simple to complex mathematical competencies, dosage calculations, and problem-solving skills to organize data and apply to medication administration. This course is intended for students planning on majoring in a health care profession which requires the delivery of medication. The goal is to assist in decreasing medication errors and increasing patient safety in the clinical area.
An introduction to elementary statistics, including topics such as normal distribution, histograms, mean, standard deviations, confidence intervals, and hypothesis testing techniques.
Two to three classes from the following .................................................................................................................. 6 BIOL 2503 Biostatistics & Research Design MGT 2302 Business Data Analytics CIS 3800 Introduction to AR/VR Application Design PSYC/SOC 2221 Data Analysis/Behav Sciences CIS 3901 Data Visualization and Presentation PSYC 2222 Experimental Psychology ENV 2300 Introduction to Geographic Information Systems (GIS) SOC 2301 Social Science Research
A rigorous and quick-paced study of the structure and algebraic properties of the real numbers, including equations (linear and quadratic) and inequalities, functions (polynomials, rational, exponential, and logarithmic), systems of equations, and trigonometric functions (including angles, measurements, and right triangle trigonometry). Cannot be taken if credit has already been received for MATH 1801. This course is intended (and a prerequisite) for those students who plan on taking either MATH 1701 or MATH 1801.
A study of topics in discrete mathematics fundamental to understanding theoretical computation. Topics include set theory, logic, logic circuits, matrices, search processes, recursive processes, induction, and finite automata.
This course will illustrate methods for solving problems typically encountered in the social, natural, and life sciences and in business. Emphasis is on application rather than formal theory.
A study of the calculus of functions of a single variable. Topics may include techniques and application of differentiation, basic techniques of integration, applications of integration, elementary numerical integration, improper integrals, and l’Hopital’s Rule.
MATH Electives at 2000 level or above ................................................................................................................... 6 MATH Electives at 3000 level or above ................................................................................................................... 6 Total: 20 **Students majoring in computer science can minor in mathematics but the electives must be from courses not in their major program. 102 | | CATAWBA COLLEGE 2026–2027 Undergraduate Catalog
A study of the calculus of functions of two or more variables and of vector-valued functions. Topics may include techniques and applications of differentiation, techniques and applications of iterated integrals, line integrals and surface integrals, Green’s Theorem, Stoke’s Theorem, and the Divergence Theorem. Prerequisite: MATH 1802.
An introduction to discrete mathematics with applications to a variety of topics that may include logic, number theory, sets, sequences, difference equations, relations, functions, counting techniques, and proof techniques.
An introduction to numerical methods utilizing the computer, including the solution of a system of linear equations, solution of non-linear equations, numerical differentiation, and integration. Prerequisites: MATH 1802 and CIS 1400.
A study of the theory and applications of probability and statistics, including discrete and continuous probability models, and hypothesis testing. Prerequisites: MATH 1132 and MATH 1802.
A study of the methods of solution of ordinary differential equations, linear differential equations with constant coefficients, non-homogenous equations, inverse differential operators, and transforms. Prerequisite: MATH 1802.
Same as CIS 4400. A capstone experience for advanced mathematics, mathematical finance, or computer science majors to integrate content learned in courses spanning the major, including analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of learned knowledge, in a project having a professional focus and effective communication of the results of the study. Course requirements also include a satisfactory score on a major field achievement test. Prerequisite: junior or senior mathematical sciences or computer science major.
