Course Description: Credit Hours: 1.00. In this program, students will maintain connections between algebra and geometry to build a conceptual understanding of functions and the role they play in mathematics. Students will explore ways to represent and analyze representations of different polynomial functions and consider contexts in which these types of functions are useful for mathematical modeling. They will examine the language and symbols of mathematical functions and how to communicate mathematically. The experience will be student-centered and engage students as mathematical thinkers and doers. Students will unpack and interrogate interesting ideas about mathematics and solve problems collaboratively. This program is designed for students who will be taking their first high school pre-calculus course in the fall and are not advanced in math. Typically offered Summer.

Course Description: Credit Hours: 3.00. Topics include trigonometric and exponential functions; limits and differentiation, rules of differentiation, maxima, minima and optimization; curve sketching, integration, anti-derivatives, fundamental theorem of calculus. Properties of definite integrals and numerical methods. Applications to life, managerial and social sciences. Typically offered Fall Spring Summer.
