MA 103A - Foundations of Mathematics (3)
Prerequisites: MA 80 or appropriate score on mathematics placement test AND placement in EN 70 or ESL 70 or
higher on the reading placement test
Combines topics with Algebra with topics from college math for those whose need is a survey
of mathematical principles rather than the in-depth analysis required for a mathematics or
science-related program. This course begins with a course in Algebra followed immediately
by a survey of college math. Topics of Algebra include linear equations, quadratic functions,
exponential functions, and logarithmic equations with an emphasis on functions, graphing,
and modeling. Topics of college math covered may include problem solving strategies, logic,
numeration systems, classification of numbers, algebra, financial management, geometry,
measurement and right triangle trigonometry, probability, statistics, graphs, systems of
equations, linear programming. Students cannot receive credit for both MA 103 and MA 103A.

MA 105 - Fundamental Concepts of Mathematics (4)
Gen Ed Math
Prerequisite or Corequisite: MA 81 or MA 83 or MA 85 or appropriate score on mathematics placement test. Note:
MA 105 is designed and recommended for Education majors in the Early Childhood Education and Elementary
Education A.A.T. degrees only.
Provides a comprehensive, conceptually-based background in elementary mathematics.
Topics include historical development of numeration systems, decimal notation, arithmetic
algorithms in decimal and other bases, elementary set theory and number theory. Intended
for early childhood and elementary education students, or other non-STEM majors, who need
a general course in problem-solving strategies, numeracy, and the real number system.
