systems of linear and non-linear equations and inequalities. CODE A
MTH 113 Precalculus Trigonometry, 3 hours
(3-0-0)
Prerequisite: Grade of C or higher in MTH 112 or appropriate placement score. This course includes the study of trigonometric (circular) functions and inverse trigonometric functions as well as extensive work with trigonometric identities, equations, and formulas. The course also covers vectors, complex numbers, DeMoivre’s Theorem, and polar graphs. Additional topics may include conic sections and product-sum formulas. CODE A (3-0-0) This course provides practical applications of mathematics and includes selected topics from consumer math, algebra, and geometry. This course covers integers, percent, interest, ratio and proportion, measurement systems, linear equations, and problem solving. CODE C MTH 125 Calculus I, 4 hours (4-0-0) Prerequisite: A minimum prerequisite of high school Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II with an appropriate mathematics placement score (listed in Mathematics Placement Criteria) is required. An alternative to this is that the student should successfully pass MTH 113 with a C or higher. 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 derivative are covered in detail, including approximations of error using differentials, maximum and minimum problems, and curve sketching using calculus. CODE A MTH 116 Mathematical Applications, 3 hours
MTH 126 Calculus II, 4 hours
(4-0-0)
Prerequisite: Grade of “C” or higher in MTH 125 This is the second of three courses in the basic calculus sequence. Topics include applications of integration, techniques of integration, infinite series, polar coordinates, and parametric equations, lines and planes in space, and vectors in the plane and in space. CODE A
MTH 227 Calculus III, 4 hours
(4-0-0)
Prerequisite: Grade of “C” or higher in MTH 126 This is the third of three courses in the basic calculus sequence. Topics include vector functions, functions of two or more variables, partial derivatives (including applications), quadric surfaces, multiple integration, and vector calculus (including Green’s Theorem, Curl and Divergence, sur face integrals, and Stokes’ Theorem). CODE A
MTH 238 Applied Differential Equations I, 3 hours
(3-0-0)
Corequisite: MTH 227 An introduction to numerical methods, qualitative behavior of first order differential equations, techniques for solving separable and linear equation analytically, and applications to various models (e.g. populations, motion, chemical mixtures, etc.);
