• MAT 151: Foundations of Math (Honors)

  3.00 Credits

  Reading Area Community College

  
  The purpose of MAT 151, Foundations of Math Honors, is to give insight into some of the more uncommon areas of mathematical thought.As many of these areas require the learning of methods of investigation rather than memorization, the main goal is that the student should be able to transfer knowledge of logical investigation of mathematics to other fields of study. Students will be expected to summarize concepts in writing and integrate subject matter with real life scenarios. Critical thinking and questioning is necessary to better understand the theory behind the topics. Prerequisite:    Take MAT-030 MAT-035 MAT-110 MAT-210 MAT-160 MAT-165 MAT-180 MAT-220 MAT-221 or MAT-222; Minimum grade C. (Required, Previous).
