EFFECTIVE FALL 2012 - this course was renumbered as MAT 110.
This course meets the same requirements as MAT 106 and can be used as a prerequisite course for MAT 117 or MAT 142. It does not satisfy the prerequisites for MAT 170. The majority of instruction will be online using KNEWTON, a web-based, artificially intelligent assessment and learning system. The cost of KNEWTON per semester is $100.
Intensive preparation for calculus (MAT 260, 270, and 290). Topics include functions (including trigonometric), matrices, polar coordinates, vectors, complex numbers, and mathematical induction.
Enroll requirements: MAT 117 with C or better, or Mathematics Placement Test with a score of 50% or higher, or ALEKS score of 61 or higher; Credit is allowed for only MAT 170 or MAT 171
Applies basic college-level mathematics to real-life problems. Appropriate for students whose major does not require MAT 117 or 170.
