MAT 191H - Calculus and Analytic Geometry 1 - Honors

4 credit hours - Four hours weekly; one term.
This is an honors course.

This course meets the Mathematics General Education Requirement

Learn to find limits, derivatives and integrals of functions. Apply these concepts to explicit, implicit, algebraic, trigonometric and transcendental functions, using derivatives to analyze graphs and to model real situations.

Prerequisite(s): Eligibility for Honors Courses and MAT 151  or MAT 146  or equivalent, or completion of three years of high school mathematics including trigonometry and achieving an appropriate score on the mathematics part of the ACT or SAT or the Mathematics Placement Test.

Crosslisted: Also offered as MAT 191 ; credit is not given for both MAT 191  and MAT 191H.

Note: Credit is not given for both MAT 191  and MAT 122 or MAT 191  and MAT 230 .

Extra class meeting times and assignments may be required.

Location(s) Typically Offered: Arnold Main Campus (MC) and Online (OL)

Term(s) Typically Offered: Fall, spring, and summer
