Show a major or a minor in mathematics. Note: Students are advised against taking both Differential Equations and Intermediate Mathematics for Engineers since there is some duplication of content and full credit may not be given for both sequences. A Mathematics Major who wishes to take Intermediate Mathematics for Engineers as partial fulfillment of the major requirements must have approval of the department Chairman. Note: It should be noted that the Weber State College Mathematics Department has increased its requirements slightly for the B.A. and B.S. degrees and the minors in an effort to gradually meet the recommendations of the Committee on the Undergraduate Program in Mathematics (CUPM) and other National Committees and organizations such as National Association of State Directors of Teacher Education Certification (NASDTEC) and the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). Courses of Instruction 001. First Course in AlgebraEssentials of mathematics to qualify students for Mathematics 14. A W S (5). Bates 004. Elements of Plane Geometry Designed for those who did not complete Plane Geometry in high school and need it as a prerequisite to further mathmetics courses.
