Mathematics (primarily algebra) preparatory to MATH 101. Qualification: Two years of highschool college preparatory mathematics, algebra and geometry, and a score of 16 or more on ACT mathematics; or a qualifying score on the mathematics placement test. MATH 002 is the lowest level mathematics course offered at the University of Kansas. Students not prepared for MATH 002 well be permitted to enroll in MATH 002. However, beofre enrolling in MATH 002, such students are encouraged to prepare by self study or by completing a beginning algebra course in high school, community college, or correspondence study.
Coordinate systems, functions and their graphs; linear, quadratic, general polynomial, exponential, and logarithmic functions; equations and inequalities. Not open to students with credit in MATH 104. Prerequisites: MATH 002, or two years of highschool algebra and a score of 22 or higher on ACT mathematics, or a qualifying score on the mathematics placement test.
The circular functions and their applications. Not open to students with credit in MATH 104. May not be used to fulfill the College mathematics requirement. Prerequisites: MATH 002 or two years of high school algebra and a score of 28 or higher on enhanced ACT mathematics, or a qualifying score ont eh mathematics placement test.
An introduction to the elementary functions (polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric) and their properties. Intended primarily for students intending to enroll in MATH 121. Open for 2 hours of credit for students with credit in MATH 101. Not open to students with credit in MATH 103. Prerequisites: MATH 002 or two years of high school algebra and a score of 22 or higher on ACT mathematics, or a qualifying score on the mathematics placement test.
This course has two purposes. First, to provide the student with some experience and insight into several areas of mathematics not normally covered in elementary courses. Typical topics which may be covered are number theory, geometries, introductory calculus, introductory probability and statistics. Second, to provide the student with some skill in handling abstract mathematical concepts. The material will develop dually the intuitive and axiomatic approach. A high degree of manipulative skill is not required for this course. Prerequisite: MATH 101 or MATH 104, or two years of high school algebra and a score of 26 or higher on ACT mathematics, or a qualifying score on the mathematics placement test.
An introduction into several areas in discrete mathematics and their applications to contemporary life. Topics covered will include the collection and description of data, including an introduction to elementary probability and statistics; and the analysis of properties of size and shape, including measurement, symmetry, relationships, and patterns. Additional material will include decision making. Prerequisite: MATH 101 or MATH 104, or two years of high school algebra and a score of 26 or more on ACT mathematics, or a qualifying score on the mathematics placement test.
Elementary differential and integral calculus, with applications in management and the biological sciences. Not open to students with credit in MATH 121. Prerequisite: MATH 101 or MATH 104, or two years of high school algebra and a score of 26 or higher on ACT mathematics, or a qualifying score on the mathematics placement test.
Continuation of MATH 115 including exponential. Logarithmic, and trigonometric functions, techniques of integration, and the calculus of functions of several variables. Not open to students with credit in MATH 122 or MATH 118. Prerequisite: MATH 115, plus a course in trigonometry, or MATH 121. MATH 103 may be taken concurrently.
A course combining the material of MATH 103 and MATH 116. Open for only 3 hours credit to students with credit in MATH 103 or MATH 104, or 5 hours credit for students who do not have credit in MATH 103 or MATH 104. Not open for credit for students with credit in MATH 116. Prerequisite: MATH 115.
Differentiation and integration of algebraic and trigonometric functions. Applications to physical sciences and engineering. Open for only 2 hours credit to students with credit in MATH 115. Prerequisite: MATH 104; or MATH 103; or three years of college preparatory mathematics including trigonometry and a score of 28 or higher on ACT mathematics or a qualifying score on the mathematics placement test
