-
3.00 Credits
Sequences and difference equations; models of growth, including linear, quadratic, geometric, and logistic growth models; linear regression; other growth and regression models and an introduction to chaos as time permits. The course uses elementary mathematical models as a vehicle for developing the students' algebraic, geometric, and problem-solving abilities. Background assumed: N.Y.S.integrated Algebra and Geometry (or Math A), or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
The course is designed to prepare students to take Survey of Calculus (MATH 120) and emphasizes multi-step problem solving. Topics include algebraic, exponential and logarithmic functions and their graphs, transformations and combinations of functions, a review of algebra and geometry, solving inequalities and systems of equations, and computational technology. (The course is not open to students who have completed MATH 106 with a grade of C- or better or who have completed a calculus course.) Background assumed: N.Y.S. Integrated Algebra and Geometry (or Math A), or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
The course is designed to prepare students to take University Calculus (MATH 122) and emphasizes multi-step problem solving. Topics include a review of algebra, solving inequalities, algebraic and transcendental functions, trigonometry, analytic geometry, applications and computational technology. (Not open to students who have completed a calculus course with a grade of C- or better.) Background assumed: N.Y.S. Algebra II and Trigonometry (or Math B), or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
The course surveys some mathematical tools that have proved useful to the social sciences, especially in business, economics, and political science. Work on one topic in particular, game theory, has led to several Nobel prizes, and may have helped the New England Patriots win three Super Bowls. Other topics will be selected from linear models, matrices, linear programming, and nonlinear and probabilistic models. Background assumed: N.Y.S. Algebra II and Trigonometry (or Math B), or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
Emphasizes the real-world significance of mathematics and the applications of several areas of mathematics. Some topics: design of street networks, planning and scheduling, weighted voting systems, fair division and apportionment, measuring populations and the universe, and statistics. Background assumed: N.Y.S. Algebra II and Trigonometry (or Math B), or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduces the liberal arts student to the nature of mathematics and what mathematicians do. An emphasis on presenting ideas and mathematical concepts rather than on attaining computational skills. Ideas from algebra, geometry, number theory, set theory and topology are presented with emphasis on their history and relevance to other disciplines. Background assumed: N.Y.S. Algebra II and Trigonometry (or Math B), or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to differential calculus for functions of a single variable, with applications to business, economics, life sciences and social sciences. Not open to students majoring in Mathematics, Physics or Chemistry. Credit will not be given for both MATH 120 and MATH 122. Prerequisite: MATH 105 or four years of college preparatory mathematics.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to integral calculus for functions of a single variable and to the calculus of functions of several variables. Included are techniques of integration and differentiation, and applications of these techniques to business, economics, life sciences and social sciences. Not open to students majoring in Mathematics, Physics or Chemistry. Credit will not be given for both MATH 121 and MATH 123.
-
4.00 Credits
Functions, inverse functions, limits, continuity, derivatives, indeterminate forms, antiderivatives; applications to rectilinear motion, graphing, maxima-minima, related rates; computational technology. Credit will not be given for both MATH 120 and MATH 122. Prerequisite: MATH 106 or four years of college preparatory mathematics.
-
4.00 Credits
Definite integrals, the fundamental theorem of calculus, techniques of integration, applications of the definite integral in the physical sciences and geometry, improper integrals, differential equations, sequences and series. Credit will not be given for both MATH 121 and MATH 123.
