Description

IC201 Foundations of Mathematics 3 credits
Designed to promote critical thinking by helping students state problems clearly, sort out
the relevant from the irrelevant, abstract common properties from individual situations, and
argue coherently. Students are exposed to good reasoning processes through an introduction
to mathematical concepts. (Although most students will not enroll in the Integrated Curriculum
mathematics course until their sophomore year, those students who wish to continue
their high school sequences of courses may choose to enroll during their first semester in
Algebra and Trigonometry, Discrete Mathematics, Calculus I or Calculus III.)
