16 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 1110Introduction to Mathematical Concepts3
This course is a brief but comprehensive introduction to mathematics. The student will be primarily encouraged to develop mathematical thinking skills, and to understand their uses especially in science and business. This course does contain algebra, trigonometry, calculus, and business math components. After completion, students should have a good conceptual understanding of many fields in mathematics, and be sufficiently skilled to understand how mathematical problems can be approached and solved. Online only.
A survey of mathematics including a sampling of topics from the history of mathematics, logic, set theory, algebra, geometry, number theory, business math, and other topics.
An examination of various concepts of basic algebra, which assist in building skills for performing specific mathematical operations and problem solving. Specific applications in accounting, finance, and economics are demonstrated and discussed.
This course is designed to educate students in the development of statistical thinking. Students will acquire the ability to accurately describe and depict data, make reliable inferences from data, and critically assess the reported results of a variety of statistical studies. Students will use scientific calculators to compute measurements used in a variety of statistical methods and tools. Example application areas include business, psychology, medicine, sports, and the sciences.
The course will address various topics in algebra including algebraic expressions, equations, exponents, scientific notation, radicals, operations with polynomials, factoring, and rational expressions. This course will develop basic computational and problem-solving skills necessary for advancement to future mathematics courses.
