in the three sequences, if taken). If the student has completed any physics course, he/she must have earned a grade of C or better. The overall record will be evaluated for quality and seriousness of purpose. An excessive number of withdrawals, incompletes, repeated courses, or failures may result in denial. By January 15 of the second semester of the junior year, the student should fill out the proper papers to transfer to University of Tennessee, Knoxville. The student will have all of his or her financial affairs handled by University of Tennessee, Knoxville. This means: The student should have his/her FAFSA information form and PROFILE data sent to University of Tennessee, Knoxville. The student will have to get a transfer application from the Office of Undergraduate Admissions from University of Tennessee, Knoxville and make sure that it is marked as a Fisk/UT-K Dual Degree Program applicant. The student has to have a Fisk University transcript sent to University of Tennessee, Knoxville. After Admission to UT-K College o

MATH 220INTRODUCTION TO HIGHER

ALGEBRA [4 credits] This course is an introduction to fundamental mathematical techniques used in upper-level mathematics courses and other disciplines. The course presents the principles of mathematical logic and uses them to examine standard methods of direct and indirect proof, including mathematical induction. Topics include techniques from elementary number theory and the naive set theoretic approach to functions and relations. An axiomatic development of some structures is introduced, as well as systems of linear equations and matrices. Instructor.

The program also may include such other mathematics courses at the 200 level or higher as the student, with departmental approval, may elect; and the foreign language requirement must be completed as for any other major. Students wishing to undertake a joint major in mathematics should obtain the advice of the mathematics Discipline Coordinator as early as possible after deciding to pursue the major. A faculty member from the department will be assigned to cooperate with the student's other major faculty academic advisor in the construction and execution of an appropriate study plan.
