Mathematics Course Descriptions
Option to Liberal Arts and Sciences, (AS.MTH)
The Mathematics option of the Liberal Arts and Sciences program is designed to prepare graduates for transfer into their junior year of a baccalaureate degree program in mathematics or a related area.
Graduates of this program should be able to:
- Differentiate and integrate algebraic and transcendental functions
- Perform double and triple integrals to calculate areas and volumes
- Perform partial differentiation
- Solve first and second order differential equations with constant coefficients
- Communicate effectively both verbally and in writing
Admission requires a high school diploma or equivalent with mathematical preparation needed for college- level calculus. At least one year of a laboratory science (physics, chemistry or biology) is strongly recommended.
This program is available through daytime or evening attendance.
