MAT 1101, Mathematical Modeling 5-0-5 (Prerequisite: Minimum ASSET score of 42 or completion of MAT 099 with a minimum exit ASSET score of 42 or Compass equivalent.). This course is designed as an alternative to College Algebra for those students who will not take Trigonometry, Precalculus, or Calculus. It is an applications-driven course that introduces functions using real-world phenomena as models. Topics include: fundamental concepts of algebra; functions and graphs; linear, quadratic, polynomial, exponential, and logarithmic functions and models of real-world phenomena; systems of equations; and additional topics in algebra.
MAT 1111, College Algebra 5-0-5 (Prerequisite: Minimum ASSET score of 42 or completion of MAT 099 with a minimum exit ASSET score of 42 or Compass equivalent.) This course emphasizes techniques of problem solving using algebraic concepts. Topics include: fundamental concepts of algebra; equations and inequalities; functions and graphs; systems of equations; optional topics including sequences, series, and probability; and analytic geometry
MAT 1112, College Trigonometry 5-0-0-5 (Prerequisite: MAT 1111 with a "C" or better) Emphasizes techniques of problem solving using trigonometric concepts. Topics include: trigonometric functions, properties of trigonometric functions, vectors and triangles, inverse of trigonometric functions/graphing, logarithmic and exponential functions, and complex numbers.
MAT 1113, Pre-Calculus 5-0-5 (Prerequisite: MAT 1111 with a "C" or better) Emphasizes the use of differential calculus. Applications of techniques include extreme value problems, motion, graphing, and other topics as time allows. Topics include: derivatives and applications, differentiation of transcendental functions, and introduction to integration and applications.
MAT 1131, Differential Calculus 5-0-5 (Prerequisite: Prerequisite: MAT 1113 with a "C" or better) Emphasizes the use of differential calculus. Applications of techniques include extreme value problems, motion, and graphing. Topics include: derivatives and applications, differentiation of transcendental functions, and an introduction to integration and applications. MAT 291, Integral Calculus 5-0-5 (Prerequisite: MAT 195 with a grade of C or better) Emphasizes the use of integral calculus. Topics include: integration and methods of integration, and their application in the technologies.
PHY 1110, Introductory Physics 4-3-5 (Prerequisite: MAT 1101 or MAT 1111.) The course is an introduction to some of the basic laws of physics. Topics include: systems of units and conversion of units; vector algebra; Newtonian mechanics; fluids and thermodynamics; heat; light, and optics; mechanical waves; electricity and magnetism; and modern physics. Laboratory experience supports classroom learning. Computer use is an integral part of class and laboratory assignments.
PHY 1111, Mechanics 4-3-5 (Prerequisites: MAT 1111 OR MAT 1113.) The first course of three algebra and trigonometry based courses in the physics sequence. This course introduces the classical theories of mechanics. Topics include: measurements and systems of units; Newton’s laws; work energy, and power; momentum and collisions; one and two dimensional motion; circular motion and law of gravity; and rotational dynamics and mechanical equilibrium. Laboratory exercises supplement class work. Computer use is an integral part of class and laboratory assignments.
PHY 1112, Electricity and Magnetism 4-3-5 (Prerequisites: PHY 1111.) The second of three algebra and trigonometry based courses in the physics sequence. This course introduces theories of electricity and magnetism. Topics include: electric charge, forces, and fields; electric potential, energy, and capacitance; magnetism; electric current, resistance, and basic electric circuits; alternating current circuits; and electromagnetic waves. Laboratory exercises supplement class work. Computer use is an integral part of class and laboratory assignments
PHY 1113, Fluids, Heat, Sound, and Light 4-3-5 (Prerequisite: PHY 191 1112.) The third of three algebra and trigonometry based courses in the physics sequence. This course introduces the classical theories of fluids, heat, sound, and light. Topics include: statics and dynamics of fluids; gas laws;, heat transfer; thermodynamics; harmonic motion; wave motion; sound; and properties of light. Laboratory exercises supplement class work. Computer use is an integral part of class and laboratory assignments.
