SUNY Plattsburgh MAT202 - Linear Algebra I (3 CR.)
SUNY Plattsburgh MAT202 - Linear Algebra I (3 CR.)
Provides students with the knowledge to make the transition from entry level mathematics to
more advanced levels of the subject. Extensive practice with creating and writing proofs is
provided. The material studied in this course is widely used in upper-level courses. (Fall -
Spring). Liberal arts. Prerequisite: MAT225.
A systematic development of algebraic structure. Methods of proof are emphasized, and proofs
of fundamental results in algebra are discussed. Topics include groups, rings and fields.
(Fall/Spring). Liberal arts. Prerequisite: MAT231.
Rigorous treatment of basic concepts, results and techniques of linear algebra for mathematics
major and students who intend to continue their studies in the mathematical sciences. Topics
include vector spaces over a field, linear transformations, inner product spaces, eigenvalues and
canonical forms. (Fall/Spring). Liberal arts. Prerequisites: MAT202, MAT231 or equivalent
knowledge.
A continuation of MAT224 and 225. Topics include vectors in the plane, geometry of three
dimensional space, vector functions in three space, partial derivatives, multiple integrals, line and
surface integrals, Green's and Stokes' Theorems. (Fall/Spring). Liberal arts. Prerequisites:
MAT225 or equivalent
Introduction to probability and statistics. Topics include the elementary theory of probability,
discrete and continuous random variables, sampling distributions, and estimation and hypothesis
testing. (Fall/Spring). Liberal arts. Prerequisites: MAT326 or POI.
Required of all mathematics majors. Designed to round out and strengthen the student's
knowledge of core mathematics and prepare the student for advanced work in mathematics.
Approved AWR. (Fall/Spring). Liberal arts. Prerequisites: ENG101, MAT301, MAT302,
MAT326.
A course designed to familiarize the adolescence major with the content and processes of the
New York State and National Council of Teachers of Mathematics standards. Students will gain
knowledge of diverse teaching strategies and methods as well as assessment techniques.
Additional emphasis will be given to classroom management, planning, grading, and
incorporation of technology into the classroom, with multiple opportunities for less and unit plan
presentations. Liberal arts. (Fall). Prerequisites: MAT301, MAT302, MAT326, MAT353,
MAT361.
This course revisits the theorems of Calculus I and II on limits and continuity, derivatives and
integrals, and infinite series. The theorems will be studied in detail, and many will be proved.
(Fall/Spring). Liberal arts. Prerequisites: MAT397.

Prerequisite: MAT 103 or higher or equivalent
This course is a study of basic statistical techniques and
some related probability theory. Course topics include data
collection and presentation, measures of central tendency
and dispersion, grouping and graphing data sets, linear
correlation and regression, sampling distributions, estimation,
and hypothesis testing. Distribution studies include the
binomial, normal, and student’s t. At least one student
project is required for this course. The use of a graphing
calculator is required for this course to further the exploration
of these topics and their applications.
