  • MTH 102 - PI Thinking Mathematically


    (Perspectives I course) A problem-solving course for non-majors designed to improve students’ application of mathematical concepts in their everyday experience. These concepts will be developed through inductive/deductive reasoning, and topics such as patterns, sequences, geometry, topology, and fractals. Students work in groups, both inside and outside of class.

    Must also enroll in Mth 102L if Mathematics SAT is less than 400 and ACT score is below 18.

    Prerequisites & Notes
    Adv Codes: NR
    Prereq: Math SAT score of at least 400 or ACT score of at least 18.

    Normal Offering Cycle: Fall/Spring

  • MTH 102L - Thinking Mathematically Lab


    This mathematics laboratory which complements MTH 102 is designed to focus on the mathematical strengths and weaknesses of students while its content parallels that of MTH 102. Students will study in small groups and receive individual assistance from the instructor. Students with neither an SAT score above 400 nor an ACT score above 18 must register for this lab and a section of MTH 102 in the Fall of their Freshman year. This course is open to all students who are concerned about their mathematical preparation for MTH 102.

    Prerequisites & Notes
    Prereq: Math SAT score less than 400 and ACT less than 18.

  • MTH 109 - PI The Mathematical Experience


    (Perspectives I course) What is mathematics, what do mathematicians do, and why do people do mathematics? What is the role of mathematics in the development of our modern society? These fundamental questions are addressed in this course to reveal the history, nature, goals, and accomplishments of mathematics. The relationship of mathematics with other disciplines and human endeavors is explored as well. The course is especially suited to those with inquiring minds, regardless of their previous mathematical experience.

    Prerequisites & Notes
    Adv. Codes NR
    Prereq: SAT score of at least 400 or ACT score of at least 18.

  • MTH 111 - PI Applied Calculus


    (Perspectives I course) This course will address many of the basic concepts from single variable calculus. An intuitive approach will be used that will allow the student to explore and investigate these concepts. The emphasis in this course will be on applications of the calculus, particularly the applications of differential calculus with some time spent on the integral calculus. (Not preparation for Mth 114).


    Prerequisites & Notes
    Adv Codes: NR
    Prereq: 3 years high school preparation for Precalculus with a C grade or better.
    A TI-83 or TI-84+ calculator is required. Rentals available ($25/semester).
