Lower division requirements for students interested in transferring to a four-year institution in this field may differ from associate degree requirements. Prospective transfer students should complete the general education and lower division requirements of the school to which they will be transferring. See a counselor for details. Information is also available at www.assist.org.

A student receiving a degree in this field will be able to:

  • Recognize, define, and apply formal mathematical notation to explain mathematical ideas.
  • Successfully perform multivariate calculations, such as differentiation and integration, in both theoretical and applied settings.
  • Apply critical thinking skills to analyze, interpret, and solve a variety of mathematical problems.
