Description

This course is an introduction to the theory, techniques, and applications of integral calculus. It constitutes the second half of the two-semester first-year calculus sequence for students studying pure or applied science. Together, Math 101 and Math 102 satisfy the first-year mathematics requirement in all university transfer science and applied science programs. Topics include antiderivatives, differential equations, definite and indefinite integrals, techniques of integration, transcendental functions, area, volume, arc length, improper integrals, infinite sequences and series, and applications.

Description

This course is an introduction to the theory, techniques and applications of elementary statistics and statistical methodology. It is intended primarily for students majoring in health sciences, business, and liberal arts programs. Topics include descriptive statistics, sampling, elementary probability, probability distributions, statistical inference, correlation, linear regression and analysis of variance. Applications to a wide variety of real-world problems are emphasized.

Description

This course is an introduction to the theory, techniques and applications differential and integral calculus with emphasis on applications to business-related subjects, and to life sciences. It is a required course for most degree programs in those subjects. Topics include limits, continuous and differentiable functions, basic optimization theory, integrable functions, techniques of integration, functions of several variables, differential equations, and applications.

Description

This course is an introduction to the theory, techniques, and applications of the calculus of functions of several real variables. Topics include vector-valued functions and their derivatives, functions of several real variables, partial differentiation, gradient vector, generalized chain rule, implicit functions, optimization theory and Lagrange multipliers.

Description

This course is an introduction to the theory, techniques, and applications of the differential and integral calculus of vector-valued functions of a vector variable. Topics include iterated integrals, line and surface integrals, theorems of Green, Gauss, and Stokes, complex numbers and functions, differential equations, and applications to classical physics.

Description

This is a course in basic mathematics for students studying or intending to study elementary level education. Topics include problem solving, natural, integer, and rational number systems, set theory, number theory, algebra, geometry, counting theory, and an introduction to probability and statistics

Description

This course is an introduction to the theory and applications of finite and countable sets.

Description

ENGL 113 introduces students to the principles and practices of effective written and oral communications in English as applied in current academic, business, and technical contexts in university course levels. Instruction will emphasize grammar, punctuation, style, and presentation as important elements applied to a wide variety of writing and speaking situations: e-mail, letters, reports, and instructional and persuasive talks. Research strategies will be practiced.

Description

This course introduces the learner to the basic knowledge of the study of local anesthesia. Course content develops the learner's understanding of pain, pain control and various techniques for patient pain management. The prevention and handling of medical emergencies in the dental environment, and the use of the online Compendium of Pharmaceuticals and Specialties is covered. The administration of safe and effective local anesthetic is applied in this course.
