MA 130 - Elements of Calculus

A one-semester survey of calculus. Topics include limits, derivatives and the integral, with emphasis on applications in the life sciences and finance. Note that the prerequisite for MA160 is MA150, so additional preparation (e.g. formal limits and more in-depth trigonometry) is strongly recommended for MA130 students who subsequently decide to petition into MA160.

Credits: 4

Prerequisites/Restrictions: At least high school algebra and trigonometry; preferably pre-calculus

LSC/Core: Quantitative Reasoning

Notes: Credit will not be given for MA 130 if credit has already been received for MA-150, MA-160
or MA-211.
