This course satisfies the computer proficiency requirement.
Prerequisites: MATH 1533 and MATH 1613 or adequate math placement.
Credits: 4
MATH 2214 – Calculus and Analytic Geometry II
The student will use integration techniques to find antiderivatives, use integrals to solve problems from geometry and physics, use vectors to solve problems in higher dimensions, test infinite series for convergence, approximate functions by using series, solve elementary first-order differential equations, and analyze functions of three variables and their contour plots. This course satisfies the computer proficiency requirement.
Prerequisites: MATH 2104 within the last year.
Credits: 4
Physics
PHYS 2014 – Engineering Physics I
This is a physics course designed primarily for pre-engineering, chemistry and physics majors. Students will demonstrate their understanding of concepts in mechanics, heat and sound by (1) developing qualitative and quantitative descriptions of physical phenomena, and (2) predicting the results of physical occurrences based on physics theory and laboratory experiments. Quantitative descriptions and predictions will incorporate methods of calculus where appropriate.
Prerequisites: MATH 2104 (or at least 4 hours of calculus) within the last year or by evaluation. Prerequisite or Corequisite: MATH 2214
