This honors course will cover the standard subject matter, as given in the MATH 131 course syllabus: Continuity, limits, and the derivative for algebraic, trigonometric, logarithmic, exponential, and inverse functions. Applications to physics, chemistry, and engineering. The honors course will cover this material in greater depth. This means that there will be some emphasis on the underlying theory, that more applications will be included, and that some attention will be paid to history. Active student participation will be encouraged. Students expected to have and use a Texas Instruments 89 Titanium Graphing Calculator. (Gen.Ed. R2)

[Note: Because this course presupposes knowledge of basic math skills, it will satisfy the R1 requirement upon successful completion.]
Open to Commonwealth Honors College Students only.
