14.00 Credits
14 s.h. The course affords students the opportunity to investigate in-depth areas not available in existing courses. Provided they obtain the sponsorship of a faculty member and the permission of the Dean, students may submit proposals contracting to undertake from one to four semester hours of independent study in approved areas. Students accepted for independent study are expected to confer regularly with their mentors and to demonstrate satisfactory proficiency in the particular area of study they have proposed to investigate. Hours: To Be Arranged.

Topics include whole numbers and the place value system; verbal problems; exponents; square roots; primes; factoring; L.C.M.; fractions; decimals; metric system; discount, profit and interest; mensuration, perimeter and circumference; area and volume. This course does not satisfy graduation requirements. Hours of class per week: 4. *4 institutional (non-degree) credits.
-
4.00 Credits
A first course for most students in Automotive, Construction, Natural Resources, and Visual Communications Technologies. Topics include review of signed numbers and operations, exponents, algebraic fractions, calculator usage, the metric system, perimeter/area/volume, triangle trigonometry, law of sines and cosines, surveying applications, and dimensional analysis. Not credited toward the A.S. or A.A. degree mathematics requirements. Hours of class per week: 4.
-
4.00 Credits
A modern approach to introductory algebra. This course is designed for students who have a limited mathematics background. Topics include sets and number systems; operations; exponents; polynomials and rational expressions; first-degree equations; graphs; verbal problems. Not credited toward the Associate Degree mathematics requirements. In certain academic programs completion of this course, based on the student's academic background, may be necessary preparation for enrollment in courses required for graduation. Hours of class per week: 4.
-
3.00 Credits
An overview of mathematics for the non-science student. Topics include elementary symbolic logic, introductory set theory, numeration systems, number bases, modular arithmetic, and properties of abstract mathematical systems. Not open to students who have credit for Intermediate Algebra, MA 151, Math 11 or Course III. Not credited toward the A.S. degree in Math/Science or Engineering Science but may be used for elective credit. Hours of class per week: 3.
-
