MAT202 - Linear Algebra I (3 cr.)

Introductory, applications-oriented course for students majoring in mathematics, computer


science, engineering, economics or science. Topics include systems of linear equations, matrices,
determinants, vector spaces and vector geometry. (Fall/Spring). Liberal arts. Prerequisites:
MAT224 or HON144, or equivalent knowledge.

MAT231 - Sets, Functions and Relations (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.

MAT301 - Introduction to Abstract Algebra (3 cr.)

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.

MAT302 - Linear Algebra II (3 cr.)

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.

MAT326 - Calculus III (0 to 4 cr.)

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

MAT353 - Geometry (3 cr.)

A rigorous treatment of the foundations of Euclidean geometry and an introduction to hyperbolic


geometry with emphasis on proofs. The history and philosophical implications of the discovery
of non-Euclidean geometry are studied. (Spring). Liberal arts. Prerequisite: MAT231.
MAT361 - Probability and Statistics (3 cr.)

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.

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.
