Emphasis is on application.
The prerequisites for both courses is Grade XII mathematics or equivalent, or MATH 0020 with a grade of C or more, or any 1000-level mathematics course. Since mathematical skills deteriorate over time, students who have been away from mathematics for a while often need to review basic mathematics beforehand in order to succeed in MATH 1130 or 2208. Brochures on the topics from high school mathematics required for these courses are available from the Mathematics Department, a booklet reviewing these topics is on sale in the bookstore, and the course MATH 0020 provides an intensive review for those who need it. Students unsure of their mathematical preparation should consult the Mathematics Department for advice. Return to top Copyright 2001 Mount Saint Vincent University.
