DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS MATH 0124 BASIC ALGEBRA A developmental course for students that need extra preparation before College Algebra. Topics include working with variables, solving equations, graphing linear functions, and factoring. Prerequisite: MATH 0174. F, S, SU MATH 0162 COLLEGE ALGEBRA SUPPORT A course designed to help students with a more modest mathematics background (ACT-16-18) to progress through College Algebra. Students will spend an additional two hours with their instructor each week. During that time, they can review underlying concepts, work through extra examples, and engage in question-and-answer sessions. Enrollment in College Algebra is required. COREQUISITE: MATH 1513. MATH 0174 PREP FOR COLLEGE MATH An entry level developmental course designed to strengthen students’ math skills. This course will include a review of the operations of arithmetic, working with signed numbers, calculations with fractions, and using percentages. Students completing MATH 0174 can proceed directly to MATH CONCEPTS 1143 with concurrent support course. Those who need College Algebra must complete MATH 0124 Basic Algebra . F, S, SU MATH 0182 MATH CONCEPTS SUPPORT A course designed to help students with a more modest mathematics background (ACT 16-18) to progress through Math Concepts. Students will spend an additional two hours with their instructor each week. During that time, they can review underlying concepts, work through extra examples, and engage in question-and-answer sessions. Enrollment in A course designed to help students with a more modest mathematics background (ACT-16-18) to progress through Math Applications. Students will spend an additional two hours with their instructor each week.

LIT 4623 17TH CENTURY ENGLISH POETRY Selected readings from the works of Jonson, Donne, and their followers, providing a background for the study of the poetry of Milton. D LIT 4763 BRITISH LITERARY HERITAGE TO 1800 In this course the student will become familiar with the major genres, authors and works and with the historical context of British literature from its beginning to 1800 with special attention to their literary qualities and conceptual contexts. While the course explores the developments in language, literature, and society, it will develop appreciation of the works assigned, as well as allow students to read literature sensitively and critically. Class discussion will focus on cultural, social, historical, and political issues raised by the literature and students' reactions to them. Consideration of the pedagogical impact of works and analysis will be included where appropriate. Writers studied include the Beowulf poet, Chaucer, Spencer, Marie de France, Shakespeare, Milton, Pope, and Johnson. Prerequisite: ENGL 1213. F LIT 4883 WOMEN AND LITERATURE This course will acquaint student with literature by women from the medieval to the present time and from all over the world, exploring issues these writers raise concerning the lives and art of women. The course will also study images of women in literary works by both men and women. Prerequisite: ENGL 1213. SE LIT 4993 THE NOVEL In this course students will read and study novels of a particular period or type. Focus will vary from semester to semester and range in period and nationality (for example, 18th Century British Novel, History of the Novel, Victorian Novel, or focus on a particular set of writers). The course will discuss critical literacies which encompass skills and dispositions to understand, question, and critique ideological messages of texts. The course will examine how canonical texts are embedded in and shaped by ideologies, help students learn to use different text structures as aids to constructing meaning through thematic organization, demonstrate scaffold instruction and discuss the pedagogical impact of teaching the novel as a form. Prerequisite: ENGL 1213. SE Philosophy PHILO 1453 INTRODUCTION TO PHILOSOPHY This course offers a survey of major world philosophers and their ideas, including but not limited to ancient Greece; ancient Rome; Medieval Christian, Jewish, and Islamic philosophers; Descartes and the debate over Rationalism and Empiricism; Kant and his followers; Marx, Utilitarianism; and the Existentialism of both Kierkegaard and Sartre. Other discussion topics include metaphysics, ontology, ethics, epistemology, axiology, and some logic. Students will be asked to exhibit knowledge of a variety of cultures and their respective philosophical movements, including both majority and non-majority groups, and their interconnectedness within U.S. and global society. F, S, SU PHILO 3113 DIGITAL ETHICS This course will introduce students to fundamental ethical theories related to the design, development, and use of technology. The course acts as bridge between ethics, technology, engineering, design, and data science, engaging in a range of current issues and topics through the application of important moral theories and attending to how new technologies often challenge what we know about ethics, politics, and law. Students will develop an understanding of philosophical ethical theories as a resource for analyzing how technology impacts both individual and collective civil issues. D
