135 hours (15 weeks).
September 2023 - Present.
Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to: define the concept of limits; calculate limits of functions; compute derivatives; determine derivatives of trigonometric functions; graph using derivatives; evaluate derivatives of functions defined through composition of functions; and solve verbal problems including related rates, max-min, and rectilinear motion.
Major topics include limits, derivatives, graphs using limits and derivatives, and verbal applications that use derivatives.
In the lower division baccalaureate/associate degree category, 3 semester hours in Mathematics or Calculus (8/24).

Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to: read, interpret and write presentations using logical mathematical symbols; write proofs of truth value of propositions, using inference rules and axioms of logic; use set theory to explain mathematical logic involving collections of objects as units; discuss the concept of algorithms as processes to solve problems; solve a recurrence relation; tell whether a function is injective or subjective; define functions explicitly and recursively; calculate probabilities using counting rules, combinations and permutations; write proofs relating number of vertices and number of edges in a tree; write proofs related to connectedness of graphs; and find shortest path in a graph; show isomorphism.
Major topics include logic, binary system, sets, functions, relations, equivalence relations, deduction, induction, recursion, algorithms in pseudo-code, matrices, probability, graphs, connectedness, trees, paths, circuits, isomorphism.

Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to: organize a given data set in frequency distributions and graphs; calculate all standard statistics; use simple probability notions; solve normal and binomial distribution problems; and use confidence intervals, measures of association, and statistical tests appropriately for inference to the population.
Major topics include measurement scales, sources of data, descriptive statistics, data display, univariate measure of location and variability, basic probability, normal curve and applications; correlation and regression, inferential statistics, probability theory, binomial distribution; and Parametric and nonparametric tests of significant difference.
