MATH 120: Precalculus
UW credits: 5
This course covers basic properties of functions, graphs; with emphasis on linear, quadratic, trigonometric, exponential functions and their inverses. The emphasis is on multi-step problem-solving.
MATH 124: Calculus with Analytic Geometry I
UW credits: 5
This course is the first course in a three-course sequence on the calculus of functions of a single variable. It emphasizes differential calculus and applications and problem-solving using the tools of calculus.
MATH 125: Calculus with Analytic Geometry II
UW credits: 5
This course is the second course in a three-course sequence on the calculus of functions of a single variable. It emphasizes integral calculus and applications and problem-solving using the tools of calculus.
Prerequisite: Completion of high school-level Calculus I/A or a grade of 2.0 or higher in UW MATH 124
MATH 126: Calculus with Analytic Geometry III
UW credits: 5
This course is the third course in a three-course sequence. It introduces vector geometry in three dimensions, vector functions, multivariate differential calculus, and Taylor polynomials and Taylor series.
Prerequisite: Completion of high school-level Calculus II/B or a grade of 2.0 or higher in UW MATH 125
STAT 220: Statistical Reasoning
UW credits: 5
This course introduces statistical reasoning. This course focuses primarily on the what and why rather than the how. This course helps students gain an understanding of the rationale behind many statistical methods, as well as an appreciation of the use and misuse of statistics. This course encourages and requires critical thinking.
TMATH 109: Financial and Mathematical Foundations
UW credits: 5
This course interprets everyday financial events using quantitative and algebraic reasoning and models. Students study graphs and equations of linear, exponential and logarithmic functions with a focus on personal finance while practicing decision-making and problem-solving. Topics may include budgeting, loans, credit cards, taxes, installment buying, mortgages, depreciation and investing.
Prerequisite: TBD
