About the Math Department
The Math Department offers a full range of math courses from Arithmetic through Calculus and Differential Equations.
The Associate of Science Transfer Degree in Mathematics curriculum is designed to prepare students for studying Mathematics at most universities. This program will enable students to develop a strong foundation in mathematics, physics, and computer studies. Furthermore, the theoretical knowledge and laboratory skills acquired by students in this program will also enhance their success with obtaining entry-level jobs that require two years of college-level math and science.
