Prerequisite: MAT 1213 or placement by the Mathematics Department. (Every Semester) MAT 2033 Inferential Statistics Continuous probability distributions, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing by the tradi- tional and p-value methods, correlation and regression, chi-square tests, analysis of vari- ance (ANOVA), and nonparametric statistics. Prerequisite: MAT 2023 or placement by the Mathematics Department. MAT 2201, 2202, 2203 Special Topics in Mathematics The student will engage in class instruction or analysis of specific topics in Mathematics. Credits to be determined by course content. May be repeated for credit with a change in topic. Prerequisite: Instructor’s Permission. (On Demand) MAT 2703 Discrete Mathematics Logic, propositional calculus, mathematical induction, elementary set theory and number theory, counting and combinatoric principles, Boolean Algebra, mathematical proofs. Pre- requisite: MAT 1825 or Instructor’s Permission. (Spring Semester) MAT 2814 Calculus III Vector geometry of the plane and space, complex numbers, calculus of parametric rep- resentations, calculus in polar coordinates, calculus of vector functions, partial differen- tiation, multiple integration, cylindrical and spherical coordinate systems. Prerequisites: MAT 1825 or equivalent course with a grade of “C” or better, or Instructor’s Permission. (Spring Semester as needed) MAT 2913 Elementary Linear Algebra Matrices and systems of linear equations, determinants, vectors and vector spaces, and the eigenvalue problem. Prerequisites: MAT 1815 or Instructor’s Permission. (On Demand) MAT 3003 Introduction to Differential Equations Introduction to ordinary differential equations, first-order equations, second and higher- order linear equations, and first order systems of linear equations. Prerequisite: MAT 2814 and MAT 2913. (On Demand) MAT 3111, 3112, 3113 Academic Internship in Mathematics This internship provides the opportunity for juniors and seniors to participate in college- related career training. The internship can be completed by participating in a mathematics- related activity requiring the significant use of college level mathematics. One example is tutoring in the ACE during the course of a semester. Students will receive variable credit based on time spent at the activity during the term. The student can collect no more than 10 semester hour credits for this course. Prerequisite: Sophomore standing with completion or prior credit for MAT 1815 and approval of the Mathematics Department Chair. (Every Semester)
