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.

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.

Pre-requisites: Math 100 or Math 140 or an equivalent
calculus course that introduces integral calculus.

- GENERAL UAS ELECTIVE

A student may take any first-year or higher university
transferable course to satisfy this elective.

Each course must transfer for three or more
credits to at least one of: SFU, UBC (Vancouver or
Okanagan), UNBC or UVIC.

To learn more about how your courses transfer visit
the online BC Transfer Guide or contact a Selkirk
counsellor.
