Schedule of Classes

Probability, descriptive statistics, statistical models, correlation and regression, testing hypotheses, confidence limits, and selected applications.

For students needing further background in mathematics before enrolling in calculus (especially MTH 121). Thorough study of algebraic, transcendental, and trigonometric functions; emphasis on graphing and use of algebra.

Differential and integral calculus with emphasis on understanding through graphs. Topics in analytic geometry, limits, derivatives, antiderivatives, definite integrals, exponential and logarithmic functions, and partial derivatives.

Topics in calculus of logarithmic, exponential, and trigonometric functions; techniques of integration; analytic geometry; indeterminate forms; improper integrals; infinite series.

Matrix algebra, determinants, theory of simultaneous equations, vector spaces, bases, Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization, eigenvalues, eigenvectors, transformations, and applications.

Topics of special interest which may vary each time course is offered, rotating among geometry, algebra/number theory, and history of mathematics. For middle school teacher certification; does not count toward a math major or math minor. May be repeated under different topics for a maximum of 9 hours credit.

Probability and statistical concepts, theory, and applications: random variables, sampling, central limit theorem, theories of estimation and the testing of hypotheses, linear models, and nonparametric methods.
