MATH 110 Concepts of Mathematics
provides an overall view of mathematics for students whose primary interests are not in engineering or the physical sciences. The course is designed to fulfill general education requirements. It is not designed as a prerequisite for any other college mathematics courses. The course focuses on mathematical reasoning and the solving of real-life problems, rather than on routine skills and appreciation. Three or four topics are studied in depth, with at least three chosen from the following list: geometry, counting techniques and probability, graph theory, logic/set theory, mathematical modeling, mathematics of finance, game theory, linear programming, and statistics. A graphing calculator is required. This course is applicable toward all certificates and degrees; group requirements include mathematics (credit hours 4.0, lecture hours 4.0). IAI:M1 904
