3.00 Credits
Cadets explore the dynamics of leading in the complex situations of current military operations in the contemporary operating environment (COE). Cadets examine differences in customs and courtesies, military law, principles of war, and rules of engagement in the face of international terrorism. They also explore aspects of interaction with non-government organizations, civilians on the battlefield, and host nation support. (Cr: 0.0)
-
3.00 Credits
A mathematics content course where the emphasis will be to develop conceptual understanding and strong mathematical skills in two of the four strands of mathematics competency for elementary school teachers as defined by the Department of Education in Massachusetts. The main focus will be on Number and Operations because this strand reflects a central role in K-8 mathematics. Functions and Algebra will also be covered in depth. Prerequisites & Notes For students in the education program only. (Cr: 3)
-
3.00 Credits
This second course in mathematics education covers the last two strands of mathematics education: foundations of probability/statistics and geometric theory. It will rigorously treat these topics by developing a strong foundation in the deep mathematical theory that drives the applications in modern statistics and geometry. Perspectives in the development of mathematics will also be presented throughout the course. Prerequisites & Notes For Education majors only. (Cr: 3)
-
3.00 Credits
Develops student problem-solving skills by teaching different problem-solving strategies and allowing students the opportunity to develop and reflect on their own problem-solving and critical thinking skills. The students will apply these strategies to real world scenarios. Satisfies the Science and Math core requirement. Prerequisites & Notes Freshman status only and permission of instructor. (Cr: 3)
-
3.00 Credits
An exploration of the mathematics involved with the visual nature of geometry. Students develop analytic, visualization and problem solving skills in the development of nontraditional geometric topics such as tessellations, three dimensional symmetry, topology and spiral growth. Satisfies the Science and Math core requirement. (Cr: 3)
-
3.00 Credits
Introductory probability and counting theory. Theoretical and empirical probabilities and counting techniques are explored in relation to business, social sciences, and games, using techniques such as Venn diagrams, trees, and two-way charts. Discrete and continuous probability distributions, including the Normal probability distribution, are also investigated. This course stresses problem-solving strategies, critical thinking, and communication. It is intended to help students think logically about numerical data and their relationships in preparation for a course in statistics. Satisfies the Math and Science core requirement. Prerequisites & Notes TI 83 plus or TI 84 calculator is required. Cannot be taken by students who have taken MTH126. (Cr: 3)
-
3.00 Credits
Introduces the student to applied statistical methods used in industry and scientific applications. Emphasis will be on the practical aspects as students use descriptive and inferential statistics to analyze real data in applications of hypothesis testing, ANOVA, and linear regression and correlation. Satisfies the Science and Math core requirement. Prerequisites & Notes A TI 83 or 84 calculator is required. (Cr: 3)
-
3.00 Credits
As preparation for the study of calculus, topics will include a detailed analysis and applications of algebraic and transcendental functions. Emphasis will be on linear and quadratic equations; polynomial and rational functions and their graphs; rates of change, optimization, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions; combinations, composition, inverses of functions, and graphical analysis. Satisfies the Science and Math core requirement. Prerequisites & Notes High School Algebra II or Pre Calculus. A TI 83 or TI 84 calculator is required. Cannot be taken by students who have taken MTH 135. (Cr: 3
-
3.00 Credits
This course offers an introduction to differential and integral calculus of the single variable. The course includes the study of limits and continuity, the mean value theorem, techniques of differentiation including the chain rule, optimization, and the fundamental theorem of calculus, antiderivatives and introductory integrals and their applications. Properties of transcendental functions (exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric) are explored using calculus. A knowledge of algebra and trigonometry is assumed. Satisfies the Science and Math core requirement. Prerequisites & Notes High school pre-calculus or MTH 128. Cannot be taken by students who have taken MTH 136. (Cr: 3)
-
3.00 Credits
This course is a continuation from MTH135. It reviews the Fundamental Theorem of calculus, antiderivatives and definite integrals to the techniques of differential and integral calculus. Further concepts of integration, and their applications to finding arc lengths, areas, volumes, and density, are explored. Applications explored include social, physical and life sciences. The use of integral tables, partial differentiation, the method of least squares, and sequences and series are also studied. Satisfies Science and Math core requirement. Prerequisites & Notes MTH135.
