3.00 Credits
This is a course in applied mathematics for students with interest in management, social sciences, life sciences, economics, and other fields. It consists of a study of the algebra of straight lines, systems of linear equations, matrix algebra, the geometry and algebra of linear programming, aspects of probability, and applications of Markov chains. Prerequisite(s): MATH 113 or two years of high school algebra. Three Hours, Spring, Odd Years
-
3.00 Credits
This course includes descriptive and inferential statistics, data summarization methods, concepts of probability theory, random variables and their mathematic expectations, discrete and continuous probability distributions, sampling theory, confidence intervals, tests of hypotheses, and simple linear regression. Prerequisite(s): MATH 133. Three Hours, Fall, Spring
-
4.00 Credits
This is the second course in the three-semester sequence of calculus with analytical geometry. It continues the study of differentiation and integration of various functions such as exponential and logarithmic functions, inverse trigonometric and hyperbolic functions. Other topics studied are limits of indeterminate forms, convergency and divergency of infinite series, and parametric and polar equations. Prerequisite(s): MATH 164. Four Hours, Spring
-
4.00 Credits
This is the third course in the three-semester sequence of calculus with analytic geometry. It introduces multivariable calculus, with a study of vectors, planes, lines and surfaces, partial differentiation and multiple integration. Prerequisite(s): MATH 254. Four Hours, Fall
-
3.00 Credits
A study of the historical background of geometry, including a detailed development of two-dimensional Euclidean geometry from a selected set of postulates. Some comparisons will be drawn with other categories of geometry. This course is required for certification to teach mathematics in Missouri. Prerequisite(s): Satisfaction of the general education mathematics minimum requirement, and a course in high school geometry. Three Hours, Spring, Odd Years
-
3.00 Credits
This is a study of the fundamental principles of the basic algebraic structures such as groups, rings, fields, and integral domains. This course is required for certification to teach mathematics in Missouri. Prerequisite or corequisite: MATH 264. Three Hours, Spring, Even Years
-
3.00 Credits
This is a more advanced course than MATH 243. It covers topics including sampling theory, philosophy and techniques of statistical inference, bivariate and partial correlation analysis, simple and multiple linear regression, regression diagnostics, and CRD and factorial analysis of variance. Appropriate class time will be devoted to use of statistical software such as MINITAB and SPSS. Prerequisite(s): MATH 133 and MATH 243. Three Hours, Fall, Odd Years
-
3.00 Credits
A course suitable for students majoring in engineering, science, mathematics, computer information systems, or business administration, linear algebra is the study of finite-dimensional vector spaces, linear transformations and matices, quadratic forms, systems of linear equations, and eignevalues and eigenvectors. Some applications include computer programs using C++ or MATLAB. Prerequisite(s): MATH 164. Three Hours, Fall
-
3.00 Credits
Differential equations have important applications in the sciences, engineering, and economics. This course is a study of separable equations, homogeneous and non-homogeneous linear equations, initial value and boundary value problems, Laplace transforms and numerical methods. Prerequisite(s): MATH 264, MATH 353, and BCSC 133. Three Hours, Spring
-
3.00 Credits
The mathematics seminar course will focus on the history of mathematics, mathematics research, and application of the material previously studied in the mathematics curriculum. An overview of the history of mathematics will be presented. Students will select a particular period of interest, study that period in depth, and make a presentation to the class. Students will also select a current area of mathematics research, study that in depth, and make a presentation to the class. Problems which require application of several topics in mathematics will be presented and discussed. Prerequisite(s): MATH 363 and consent of the instructor. Three Hours, Fall
