MAT 117 College Algebra
Prerequisites: Students MUST complete the Unified Placement Test with a score of 60 or higher or have completed MAT 106 or MAT 113 with a C or better. Students enrolling in MAT117 should have successfully completed the equivalent of MAT106 (Intermediate Algebra). It is essential that students in MAT117 have a command of basic algebraic skills such as factoring, basic equation solving, and a thorough knowledge of the rules of exponents and radicals.
Description: Linear and quadratic functions, polynomial and rational functions, logarithmic and exponential functions, systems of equations. When a student has an equivalent course to MAT-117 on record, they may receive credit for only one 3-hour College Algebra course. Fee for online course.

MAT 119 Finite Mathematics
Prerequisites: Students MUST complete the Unified Placement Test with a score of 75 or higher or have completed one of the following courses with a grade of C or better: MAT 113, 117, 170, 210 or 270.
Requirement Designation: Satisfies General Studies, MA.
Description: Differential and integral calculus of elementary functions with applications. Fee for online course.

MAT 142 College Mathematics
Prerequisites: Students MUST complete the Unified Placement Test with a score of 60 or higher or have completed one of the following courses with a grade of C or better: MAT 106, MAT 113 or MAT 117. While this applies to the online version, a strong grasp of basic mathematics is recommended since it requires significant amounts of independent study. Students should have prior understanding of basic concepts of algebra which are reviewed at appropriate times in the course. Students with no previous experience with algebra are advised to successfully complete an intermediate algebra class before enrolling in MAT 142.
Requirement Designation: Satisfies General Studies, MA.
Description: Applies basic college-level mathematics to real-life problems. This is a survey of topics including logic, sets and counting, probability, statistics, geometry, rates of change, general numeracy or voting systems as the instructor chooses. Appropriate for students whose major does not require MAT 117 or 170.
