The Mathematics program is a major under the Science, Associate of Science degree.
PURPOSE: The Mathematics major is intended for those who plan to transfer to a four-year college or university to complete a bachelor of science degree in a major that requires a background in mathematics.
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS: General college curricular admission.
PROGRAM NOTES: The following high school units are strongly recommended for the Mathematics major: four units of English; four units of college preparatory mathematics, including algebra (two units), geometry, and trigonometry (or advanced math); two units of laboratory science; and one unit of social studies. Students in the Mathematics major are urged to begin their programs of study during the fall semester because many courses are sequential and only offered once a year.
Students are encouraged to seek information from the upper-division college, university, or professional school to which transfer is intended as to specific requirements for a particular major or specific admission requirements. Students are advised that grades of C or higher are required for a course to transfer to a 4-year institution.
COMPUTER COMPETENCY REQUIREMENT: Students in this program will meet the college’s computer competency requirement by passing the computer competency exam, administered in the testing centers on each campus, or by completing ITE 152 - Introduction to Digital Literacy or CSC 221 - Introduction to Problem Solving and Programming . Students not passing the computer competency exam for ITE 152 may retake the exam only once.
