Description:

Prerequisite: Admission into the Honors Program with a grade of B or higher in MATH 1111 or permission of the instructor. This course is a three-credit-hour Honors course designed to provide academically talented and motivated students the opportunities to build and improve their critical and analytical thinking skills, problem-solving skills, written communication shills, collaborative learning skills, and conceptual understanding of some mathematical concepts. To prepare students for the study of calculus, physics, and engineering, extensive treatment is given to selected topics with special emphasis on algebraic and transcendental functions and their graphs, analytic trigonometry, analytic geometry, applications of trigonometry (with special attention to the Complex Plane and Polar Form for Complex Numbers, DeMoivre's Theorem, the nth Roots of Complex Numbers, Vectors in the Plane, and Dot Product), systems of linear and nonlinear equations (with special attention to large systems, matrix methods for square systems), Discrete Algebra (sequences and sums, arithmetic and geometric sequences, infinite series, the Binomial Theorem, Principle of Mathematical Induction), Limits and Continuity, and at least one project (discovery or otherwise). A graphics calculator is required.
