MTH 125S General Statistics
An introductory general statistics course.  Topics include data organizations and display; measure of dispersion and central tendencies; probability models, random variables and finite probability distributions; normal and binomial distributions; normal distribution approximation to the binomial distribution; central limit theorem and confidence limits; introduction to experimental design and sampling; and statistical control charts for statistical process control (SPC).  Prerequisite:   Satisfactory math assessment score and three years of college preparatory mathematics, or a grade "C" or better in MTH 099D. Syllabus

MTH 126S Mathematical Foundations I
First of a two course sequence designed for elementary education majors.  Topics covered include origin of numbers and systems of numeration; systems of whole numbers, integers, and rational numbers; and sets and logic.   Prerequisite:  Math assessment test and three years of college preparatory mathematics, or a grade of "C" or better in MTH 099D.  Syllabus

MTH 127S Mathematical Foundations II
Continuation of MTH 126S.  Topics covered include introduction to probability, statistics, plane geometry, and coordinate geometry, and concepts of measurement and problem solving.   Prerequisite:  a grade of "C" or better in MTH 126S. Syllabus

MTH 201S Inferential Statistics
An advanced course in inferential statistics and a continuation of MTH 125S.  Includes topics of normal distribution, t-distribution, and the normal approximation to the binomial distribution; experimental design and sampling; estimating confidence intervals with test of significance; hypothesis testing for the mean of a population and comparison of two means; Chi-square distribution with application to inference about a population variance and to contingency tables; analysis of variance; and scatter plots with least squares regression and correlation.  Prerequisite:  a grade of "C" or better in MTH 125S.  Syllabus
