3.00 Credits
This course enables students to develop an understanding of the methods of calculus and the significance of this powerful tool in the solution of complex problems of today. After a review of pre-calculus, the survey introduces modeling and problem solving that depend on the concept of limits. Students explore the fundamental theorem of calculus and the concepts of differential and integral calculus in practical applications. Prerequisite: MTH 213 or equivalent or permission of the instructor. Meets LAC outcome: LLD3. 3 crs.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to the fundamental methods of statistics in the collection, organization, presentation, and analysis of numerical data. It demonstrates the application of statistics to many problems such as designing experiments, making decisions, and the significance of trends. The intent is to underscore the importance of statistics in a variety of contexts and in a manner that is both stimulating and comfortable. Prerequisite: MTH 111 or equivalent or permission of instructor. Meets LAC outcome: LLD4. 3 crs.

3.00 Credits
Because virtually every business situation involves numbers, it follows that business professionals should be numbersproficient. Mathematical topics will focus principally on the theory of the time-value of money and will include the calculation of amortization schedules, internal rates of return, net present value, financial ratios, and forecasting. The course will also include a review of algebraic skills and graphing as applied to business settings. The Hewlett Packard HP 10b II, or a calculator with financial functions, is recommended for this class. Meets LAC outcome: LLD1. 3 crs.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is not intended to teach a mathematics technique but instead addresses the question: "What is mathematics "Here, mathematics is viewed as an excellent way to help people read critically, identify fallacies, detect bias, assess risk, and suggest alternatives. The course helps improve thinking skills and build confidence in the art of clear communication. Meets LAC outcome: LLD5. 3 crs.
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to music cultures of Africa, Asia, and Eastern Europe. No musical experience required. Meets LAC outcome: HCA3. 3 crs.
-
6.00 Credits
The fourth in a six-course sequence that develops a skillset for the understanding, creation, and performance of music. This course begins the study of chromatic materials including secondary dominants, modulation, and binary, ternary, and sonata forms. The student will incorporate these elements into short original compositions. Prerequisite: MU 103. Meets LAC outcome: AIB1. 3 crs.
