3.00 Credits
3 hours, 3 credits. This course is designed for students interested in the social sciences. Topics covered will be selected from elementary probability, theory of gambling, random walks, game theory, and linear programming. Emphasis is placed on a descriptive treatment of mathematical material and its application to the social sciences. PREREQ: Either three years of high school math or MAT 172. Note: MAT 300 may not be counted toward the MAT major.
-
3.00 Credits
4 hours (2 lecture, 2 lab), 3 credits. An elementary treatment of statistical concepts. Data analysis using standard statistical methods available in the Statistical Package for Social Scientists or similar statistical software. PREREQ: MAT 132 and MAT 171. Notes: (1.) MAT 301 may not be counted toward the Mathematics major. (2.) An equivalent college-level statistics course may be substituted for MAT 132 as a prerequisite for this course.
-
3.00 Credits
