MAT 195 - Calculus for BUS, DSC, & ECO
Calculus for Business, Data Science, and Economics Prerequisite: Placement at this level or completion of MAT 099 This course blends topics form Precalculus and Calculus, focusing specifically on the skills and applications necessary to support students' majoring in Business, Data Science, or Economics. This course offers just-in-time algebra support. Precalculus topics include the study of functions, domain and range, polynomial, rational, radical, exponential, and logarithmic functions.Calculus topics include an introduction to limits and continuity, rates of change, the definition of the derivative, and techniques of differentiation of linear, polynomial, exponential, logarithmic, and rational functions. The course will include applications of the derivative to solve applied problems in the fields of business and economics. Characteristics of functions such as intervals of increase or decrease, concavity, extrema, and end behavior will be studied as a means to describe, reason, interpret and analyze relationships. The course concludes with an introduction to integration. Use of an approved graphing calculator is required thoughout the course. This course is intended for students majoring in Business, Data Science, or Economics and cannot be substituted for MAT 243 Calculus I with technology. 4.000 Credit hours 4.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Laboratory, Lecture Mathematical Sciences Department Course Attributes: ELAC Foundational Concept Math, LAC T1M-Mathematics Prerequisites: Qualified For Any LAC Math 1 or MAT 243, Calculus I w/Tech 1 or MAT 130, Pre-Calculus 1 or MAT 155, Pre-Calculus 1 or MAT 135, Math For Liberal Arts 1 or MAT 155P, Pre-Calculus Plus 1 or MAT 135P, Math Lib.
