Course Information
Math 102L
Mth 102L is an intensive mathematics laboratory to complement Mth 102. It is designed to focus on the mathematical strengths and weaknesses of students while its content parallels that of Mth 102. Students will study in small groups and receive individual assistance from the instructor.
This course is open to all students who are concerned about their mathematical preparation for Mth 102.
Students with an SAT score below 400, an ACT score below 18 or less than 75% on the Integrated Algebra Regents exam must register for this lab and a section of Mth 102 in their Freshman year. If the student did not take mathematics Regents exams, the student's math placement will be determined by the Chairperson of the Department of Mathematics.
0 credits, 1.5 hours
PI Courses
Mth 102, Thinking Mathematically
- A look at mathematics from a new perspective
- If you want to learn mathematics through problem solving in group work.
Mth 109, The Mathematical Experience (Writing Intensive)
- A look at the progression of mathematics through the ages
- If you want to learn mathematics through reading, writing, and history.
Mth 111, Applied Calculus
- A survey of Calculus for the inquisitive student. Mth 111 is recommended for Business Administration majors and Health Science/Physical Therapy majors. Environmental Science majors, Economics majors and Accounting majors must take either Mth 111 or Mth 113.
- If you want to understand how calculus is used to help solve problems in business and in the sciences.
Mth 112, Precalculus (Fall semesters only)
- The course designed to prepare you for traditional Calculus. Mth 112 is for mathematics and science majors who are not yet fully prepared to take Mth 113.
- If you plan to take Mth 113 but your skills in algebra and trigonometry are weak.
Mth 113, Calculus I
- The "traditional" Calculus class. Mth 113 is required for Biology, Biochemistry, Chemistry, and Mathematics majors and recommended for Health Science/Physical Therapy majors.
- If you enjoy mathematics and have a good Precalculus background.
PII Courses
Of your four PII requirements, one must be either mathematics or science. You can fulfill two of the required PII areas by taking both a mathematics PII course and a science PII course.
Mth 114, Calculus II
- The "traditional" Calculus II class
- If you enjoy mathematics and have a good Calculus I background.
Mth 205, Mathematical Connections (Spring semesters only)
- A survey of topics in contemporary mathematics
- If you want to see contemporary mathematics used to solve real world problems including fair division (e.g. inheritances), voting theory, and distribution networks (e.g. newspapers).
Mth 207, Elementary Statistics
- The statistics course for non-majors.
- If you want to learn about statistical concepts and their application to everyday life in order to become an intelligent consumer of commercial statistics and to be able use statistics in your own discipline.
Mth 208, Statistics for Scientists (Spring semesters only)
- The statistics course for non-majors in social or physical science.
- If you want to develop statistical concepts within scientific applications.
Mth 215, Exploring Mathematics
- Mathematical preparation for students who have taken or are currently taking Edu 204.
