Prerequisites: COMP 01112 and LAWJ 05255 and LAWJ 05380 This seminar will cover topics relating to how law and justice are put into practice by the police, courts, and corrections system. Important issues affecting society and the criminal justice system as a whole will be examined in depth. Students will be expected to read scholarly work exploring these issues; participate in class discussions; conduct library research; write short, informal memos and a senior level research paper; present oral reports on their research; and demonstrate their understanding of assigned readings and the research reported by classmates in a final examination.

This course is designed to develop an appreciation of what mathematics is and how it is used today. Topics covered include: statistics and probability; graphs, trees and algorithms; geometrical perspectives including transformations, symmetry, and similarity; and the mathematics of social choice. Students are expected to have completed equivalents of Basic Algebra 1 and Basic Skills Reading.

4.00 Credits
This course helps prepare students for Calculus I or Calculus T&A. The contents include: a brief review of intermediate algebra, the structure of the real number system, elementary analytic geometry, and algebraic, exponential, logarithmic and trigonometric functions (including their inverses and related functions). Graphs of functions and conic sections also are studied. A graphing calculator is required. Students are expected to have completed an equivalent of Basic Algebra II.

This course is designed to help students who are weak in algebra prepare for Statistics I or Calculus Techniques & Applications. The contents include: a brief review of intermediate algebra, the structure of the real number system, elementary analytic geometry, and algebraic, exponential and logarithmic functions (including their inverses and related functions). Graphs of functions are also studied. A graphing calculator is required. Students are expected to have completed Basic Algebra II or its equivalent.

4.00 Credits
This course begins with a discussion of functions, the limit concept and continuity. The concept of a derivative is introduced and the student learns to differentiate algebraic functions, exponential, functions, logarithmic and trigonometric functions. Differentiation is applied to analysis of functions, extreme problems and to problems in related rates. The integral as the unit of a sum is linked to the antiderivative by the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus and used to find areas. A graphing calculator is required for this course, and so is the use of a computer software, such as Mathematica. Students are expected to have completed an equivalent of (Math 01.122) Precalculus.

4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: MATH 01130 or HONR 05180 This course begins with applications of integration (such as volume of a solid of revolution work, arc length, area of a surface of revolution, center of mass) and derivatives of inverse trigonometric functions. Integration by parts, partial fractions and other more advanced integration techniques are introduced, along with a discussion of numerical integration, improper integrals, indeterminate form, sequences and infinite series. A graphing calculator is required for this course, and so is the use of computer software, such as Mathematica.

3.00 Credits
This course concerns the development of number systems and algebraic structures, including the natural numbers, the integers, rational numbers, real and complex numbers. Concrete examples of selected algebraic structures such as modular arithmetic and matrices are also included. Students will be required to reason mathematically, solve problems, and communicate mathematics effectively at different levels of formality, using a variety of representations of mathematical concepts and procedures. Use of calculators is required. Students are expected to have completed an equivalent of Basic Algebra II.

3.00 Credits
This course develops the fundamental concepts of Euclidean geometry from a modern point of view. Its topics include sets, points, lines, space, betweenness, incidence, congruence, parallelism, similarity, transformations, volumes, and areas. Non-Euclidean geometries are introduced. Not open to mathematics majors. Use of calculators is required. Students are expected to have completed an equivalent of Basic Algebra II.
-
2.00 Credits
Prerequisites: CS 01102 and MATH 01130 This course will use mathematics-specific technologies to help students discover mathematics and to develop a better understanding of new content. Throughout the course students will become aware of the broad range of mathematics-specific technologies available to mathematicians, become proficient in the use of these, and pursue the advantages, disadvantages, and limitations of such technologies. Students will solve problems and advance their understanding of topics in the areas of pre-calculus, calculus, geometry and statistics.
