Study of the beauty and structure of mathematics, with emphasis on quantitative and analytical reasoning skills. Various areas of mathematics or its applications will be used as a vehicle for this study. Designed for students whose major area of study does not have specific requirements in mathematics. May not receive credit for more than one of MATH 105, MATH 200 and MATH 190. Prerequisites: Three years of high school mathematics including geometry or college-level intermediate algebra. Four hours per week. Meets General Education IVB or IVC (Prior to Fall 2008: IIIB or IIIC).

Designed for students with a major in mathematics to develop topics in mathematics not included in their undergraduate program, or to extend areas previously studied. Specific topic may be indicated on transcript. May be taken twice under different course subtitles recorded with the registrar. Graduate credit only. Prerequisite: Approval of department chair.

Provides a thorough understanding of the mathematical concepts covered in grades one through eight. Moves through the mathematical content into the ability to explain the mathematical ideas and relationships. Emphasizes the ability to explain the concepts in everyday language appropriate for the listener, using correct vocabulary, and the ability to demonstrate these ideas using physical models and/or activities. Use of technology is required. Includes non routine problem solving. May not receive credit for both MATH 103 and MATH 130. Prerequisite: Declared elementary education or early childhood education major. Three hours per week. Does not meet General education requirements.

Axiomatic development of incidence, ordered incidence, affine and absolute geometries; investigation of Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometries, and the use of dynamic geometry software. May not receive credit for both MATH 406 and MATH 516. Prerequisite: C or better in MATH 210. Four hours per week. Meets General Education IVB or IVC.
