MAT 100Q: Quantitative Literacy I

Credits 4

This course focuses on quantitative reasoning and engages students in relevant and useful mathematics that they can apply to their daily lives, such as: numeracy, proportional reasoning, algebraic reasoning and an understanding of functions. Students will develop conceptual and procedural tools that support the use of mathematical concepts in a variety of contexts. Near the end of the course, students will complete a comprehensive, departmental final exam. This is the first of two courses that follow the Quantway curriculum. The Quantway sequence of courses is intended for non-STEM (math, science, computer science and technology) students and non-business transfer students. After successful completion of this courses, students can take MAT101Q - Quantitative Literacy II or MAT103 - Finite Mathematics. This course counts as free elective credit only.
