1 Electives for Mathematics majors: Major electives are selected from Mathematics courses numbered above MATH 300; also
PHYS 350, PHYS 351, CMPS 362 or CMPS 364. A student must select as an elective at least one of MATH 447 or 449,
and at least two of MATH 312, 345, 460, 461. Additional courses numbered under MATH 300 may be taken as free electives
but not as major electives.
2 Cognate electives must be used to complete a minor, a concentration, a second major, secondary-education certification, or a
package of courses pre-approved by the department.
The results of the placement tests administered during freshman orientation assist students and their advisors in choosing
the proper beginning-level mathematics sequence and the proper entry-level within that sequence. If a course is a prerequisite
for a second course, directly or indirectly, and a student receives credit for the second course then that student will not
be allowed to register for the prerequisite course.
from psychology and related disciplines. Not
open to students with credit for or enrolled in
MATH 103.
MATH 114 4 cr.
(Q) Analysis I
(Prerequisite: MATH 103 or equivalent) The
beginning of a 12-credit sequence covering the
topics of calculus and analytic geometry. Limits,
derivatives, integration. Fundamental Theorem.
MATH 142 4 cr.
(Q) Discrete Structures
A study of symbolic logic, sets, combinatorics,
mathematical induction, recursion, graph theory,
and trees. Intended for Mathematics, Computer
Science, and Computer Information Systems
majors, but open to other qualified students.
