Upon completion, students should be able to solve problems, apply critical thinking, work in teams, and communicate effectively. This course provides topics used to formulate models and to solve and interpret solutions using an algorithmic approach. Topics include linear algebra, linear programming, simplex method, sets and counting, probability, mathematics of finance, and logic. Upon completion, students should be able to demonstrate both an understanding of the theoretical concepts of finite mathematics and the ability to solve related problems. This course is a laboratory for MAT 165.
Emphasis is placed on experiences that enhance the materials presented in the class.
Upon completion, students should be able to solve problems, apply critical thinking, work in teams, and communicate effectively. This is the first of two courses designed to emphasize topics which are fundamental to the study of calculus. Upon completion, students should be able to solve practical problems and use appropriate models for analysis and predictions. This course is a laboratory for MAT 171. Emphasis is placed on experiences that enhance the materials presented in the class.
