0.00 Credits
A noncredit course in basic mathematics and introductory algebra required of all students with scores of 15 or below on the ACT Mathematics Subtest. Except as noted below, no other mathematics course may be taken until a grade of S is earned in MA 099. May also serve as a refresher or beginning course in mathematics for other students. Counts as three semester hours in determining hour load. Grading is S (Satisfactory) or U (Unsatisfactory). Students may be exempted only by approval of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science. A student receiving a grade of U must repeat the course. After the second term in MA 099 the student, no matter what the grade, must proceed to the credit sequence beginning with MA 100. Students will not be allowed to withdraw from non-credit courses unless they are completely withdrawing from school. In the case of a complete withdrawal, a grade of WS, Withdrawal Satisfactory, or WU, Withdrawal Unsatisfactory, will be assigned. Grades of WS or WU have no effect on the student's scholastic standing. (Fall, Spring)

3.00 Credits
This course emphasizes the breadth of application of contemporary mathematics to modern society. It is intended primarily for the liberal arts major. Topics covered include charts, graphs, compound interest, problem solving, sets, logic, probability, and statistics. Preqrequisite: minimum ACT mathematics score of 16 and one unit of high school algebra, or satisfactory completion of MA 099. Not open to students with credit in MA 115 (prior to fall 1998). (Fall, Spring)
-
3.00 Credits
This course is a continuation of Pre-Calculus Algebra. It includes the study of trigonometric and inverse trigonometric functions and includes extensive work with trigonometric identities and trigonometric equations. The course also covers vectors, complex numbers, DeMoivre's Theorem, and polar coordinates. Additional topics may include conic sections, sequences, and using matrices to solve linear systems. Prerequisite: MA 112; or permission of the Chair of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science. Not open to students with credit in MA 103. (Fall, Spring, Summer)
-
4.00 Credits
This course is a one semester combination of Pre-calculus Algebra and Pre-calculus Trigonometry intended for superior students. The course covers the following topics: algebra of functions (including polynomial, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions); systems of equations and inequalities; quadratic inequalities; the binomial theorem; the study of trigonometric and inverse trigonometric functions including extensive work with trigonometric identities and trigonometric equations; vectors; complex numbers; DeMoivre's Theorem; polar coordinates. Prerequisite: minimum mathematics ACT score of 22 and credit in high school Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry; or grade of C or better in Intermediate Algebra. Not open to students with credit in MA 151. (Fall, Spring)
-
3.00 Credits
Algebraic and some transcendental functions; limits; continuity; derivatives; maxima and minima; applications. Prerequisite: MA 112 or equivalent. Not open to students with credit in MA 221. (Fall)
-
3.00 Credits
Antiderivatives; the definite integral; applications of the definite integral; functions of two or more variables; partial derivatives; maxima and minima; applications. Prerequisite: MA 121. Not open to students with credit in MA 222. (Spring)
-
4.00 Credits
This is the first of three courses in the basic calculus sequence taken primarily by students in science, engineering and mathematics. Topics include the limit of a function; the derivative of algebraic, trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions; and the definite integral and its basic applications to area problems. Applications of the derivatives are covered in detail, including approximations of error using differentials, maximum and minimum problems, and curve sketching using calculus. Prerequisite: Mathematics ACT score of 28 or higher; or MA 115; or both MA 112 and MA 113. Not open to students with credit in MA 251. (Fall, Spring)
-
4.00 Credits
This is the second of three courses in the basic calculus sequence. Topics include vectors in the plane and in space, lines and planes in space, applications of integration (such as volume, arc length, work and average value), techniques of integration, infinite series, polar coordinates, and parametric equations. Prerequisite: MA 125. Not open to students with credit in MA 252. (Fall, Spring)
-
1.00 Credits
A survey of the impact of mathematical thought on the evolution of modern society. (Offered on sufficient demand)
-
3.00 Credits
Course designed to assure appropriate foundation for success in subsequent courses in basic calculus sequence. Placement based on calculus proficiency examination. Prerequisite: permission of the Chair of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science. (Offered on sufficient demand)
