Mathematics (MAT)
This course is designed for college students who need a review in preparation for further study of college-level mathematics, and it does not fulfill the B.A/B.S. core requirement in mathematics. This is a self-paced course in which students will work independently using adaptive learning technology to refresh their basic math skills.

This course is designed for diverse students to acquire a solid foundation in non-calculus mathematics. It uses practical mathematics to develop problem solving and analytical skills. Topics include linear equations, linear inequalities, matrix and its application, linear programming, and the simplex method.
This is an introduction to the basic descriptive and inferential statistics for students from all disciplines. It emphasizes the development of statistical literacy and the use of computer for analyzing data. Topics include principles of experimental design; graphical and numerical methods for summarizing, describing, exploring and analyzing data; binomial and normal probability distributions; point and interval estimates for means and proportions; hypothesis testing; and correlation and regression.
This course is an overview of algebra, trigonometry and analytic geometry. It is designed to provide students with a comprehensive and mathematically sound treatment of topics needed for calculus. The topics include, functions and graphs; polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions; matrices; vectors; and three-dimensional coordinate geometry.
This is women focused, empowering students to take ownership of their lives and learning by engaging them in transformative, purposeful leadership opportunities. Introducting women role models in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). Providing women's role models in STEM, the challenges, struggles, and contributions.

This course is part of a two-semester sequence (221-222), covering materials on limits, continuity, derivative of a function, techniquest of differentiation, and applications of derivatives. It prepares students for further study of MAT222, Calculus II. This is an applied calculus course with less emphasis on theoretical rigor. Instead, the emphasis is on basic concepts, methods, and applications.
