  • MAT 100: Problem Solving Seminar

    3.00 Credits
    University of Sioux Falls

    An interactive study of the subtle concept of how to solve a math problem. Problems from all areas and levels of difficulty will be introduced and offered during this seminar. Topics will include familiar high-school-level mathematics such as algebra, trigonometry and geometry, but a greater richness and depth of the material will be uncovered during the exploration of solving mathematical problems. Often neglected topics such as probability, number theory and combinatorics will be explored as well. Opportunities for studying advanced topics requiring knowledge of calculus will be available, but not expected. Students will practice writing cogent solutions to problems in mathematics and will have an opportunity to present their results as well. Prerequisite: Interest in Mathematics. Offered every fall. Note: This course may be repeated for additional elective credit (but a student may not receive credit for the course more than four times). (1 s.h.)

  • MAT 151: Nature of Mathematics

    4.00 Credits
    University of Sioux Falls

    An examination of the characteristics and value of the mathematical enterprise, especially as it relates to other areas of human inquiry. Fundamental concepts from algebra, probability, discrete mathematics, and the axiomatic method are developed as a base for analytic reasoning. Modeling and abstraction are then used to address issues drawn from social choice, operations research, the humanities, and the natural sciences. Throughout the course, mathematical argument and construction are studied and practiced. This course is well suited for students interested in studying math in this rich context. Students who require the technical language of college algebra or calculus should take those courses instead of, or in addition to, this course. Offered every semester. (4 s.h.)

  • MAT 201: Calculus for Applications

    3.00 Credits
    University of Sioux Falls

    A one semester introductory, applications-oriented calculus course primarily intended for students of business or the social sciences. The emphases will include a more conceptual, less axiomatic, foundation of calculus. As such, it is not intended for students majoring in the mathematical sciences. The course will build upon a careful study of calculus applications, particularly those originating in a more complete understanding of business and economics. The course will have a "real world" orientation withless abstraction than that of traditional theory-oriented courses. The course begins by reviewing algebraic techniques and developing functions. This course should also serve as preparation for the national standardized exams required by many MBA programs. Prerequisite: MAT 112 or equivalent algebra course (no trigonometry required). Offered every spring. (3 s.h.)
