CHEM 213 - ORGANIC CHEMISTRY II

A continuation of CHEM 212. The survey of organic
families is continued with a study of aldehydes and
ketones, carboxylic acid derivatives, aromatics and
amines. The chemistry of a variety of compounds of
biological interest is also discussed. The laboratory
work involves synthesis and organic structure
determination.

Prerequisites: CHEM 212 with a grade of “C” or higher.

MATH 100 - CALCULUS I

A course designed to provide students with the
background in calculus needed for further studies.
This course includes: a review of functions

and graphs; limits; the derivative of algebraic,
trigonometric, exponential and logarithmic functions;
applications of the derivative including related

rates, maxima, minima, velocity and acceleration;
the definite integral; an introduction to elementary
differential equations; and, applications of integration
including velocity, acceleration, areas, and growth
and decay problems.

Prerequisites: Pre-calculus 12, Principles of MATH 12
or equivalent with a grade of “C+” or higher.

MATH 101 - CALCULUS II

This course is a sequel to MATH 100 for those
students who wish to major in mathematics,
sciences or applied sciences. The course includes:
antidifferentiation and integration; the definite
integral; areas and volumes; transcendental
functions; techniques of integration; parametric
equations; polar coordinates; indeterminate forms,
improper integrals and Taylor’s formula; and infinite
series.

Prerequisites: MATH 100 or equivalent with a grade of
“C” or higher.

STAT 206 - STATISTICS

This course provides an introduction to statistical
methods intended for students of Engineering or
the Sciences. Descriptive statistics, probability

and inferential statistics are covered at a level
appropriate for students with some calculus
background. The students will learn to calculate
confidence intervals and perform hypothesis testing
for experiments involving one and two samples.
Linear regression and correlation may be introduced
if time permits.

Prerequisites: Math 100 or Math 740 or an equivalent
calculus course that introduces integral calculus.
