  • If you do not place into MTH 121 Calc with Analytic Geom I the prerequisites are MTH 100 Intro. to College MathematicsMTH 119 Pre-Calculus I and MTH 120 Pre-Calculus II. Math Placement is determined by the Mathematics Department. These courses should be taken in high school or the summer before your first semester at ECC. 
  • Major Electives are four 3-credit courses which are to be selected in consultation with a faculty advisor in the Division of METCS.

Notes:

  1. For an explanation of why General Education courses are included in this Program, please refer to the Section on General Education for an explanation of its Purpose and Requirements. 
  2. This plan assumes the student is eligible to enroll in College Level Courses (designated as 100 +, e.g., ENG 101 College Composition I, HST 101 World Civilization I, MTH 100 Intro. to College Mathematics).  Placement results will determine College Level Readiness in English and Mathematics.  

Upon completion of this program, graduates will be able to:

  • Demonstrate knowledge of the fundamental concepts and theories from calculus, probability, statistics, linear algebra and technical writing;
  •  Utilize various problem-solving and critical-thinking techniques to set up and solve applied problems in science, business, engineering, and technology fields;
  •  Communicate accurate mathematical terminology and notation in written and/or oral form in order to explain strategies to solve problems as well as to interpret found solutions; and
  •  Use appropriate technology, such as graphing calculators and computer software, effectively as a tool to solve problems.
