Mathematics

Mathematics provides the opportunity for students to develop objective reasoning, precise thinking, and an appreciation of the contribution of mathematics to society. The logical solution of problems in this discipline fosters attitudes needed by all educated adults. Students who have earned a “C” or better in a math course for which degree credit is awarded may not register for or earn credit for Math 101. For the teacher certification programs in Mathematics Grades 1-6 and 7-12, see the School of Education page.
