The following table is a guide for students (non-mathematics-majors)
selecting a first mathematics course. You should also discuss this decision
with your academic advisor.
| Previous mathematics courses: |
Recommended course: |
| 1 year high-school algebra and 1 year high-school geometry |
Beginning or intermediate algebra at a community college |
| 2 years high-school algebra and 1 year of high-school geometry |
Liberal arts majors: Math 1010
Business students: Math 1070
Science/Engineering students: Math 1110 (average of C) or Math 1120 (average
of B or above) |
| 2 years high-school algebra and 1 year of high-school geometry, with
trigonometry |
Liberal arts majors: Math 1010

Students planning to take Math 1070, Math 1110, or Math 1401 must take
an Accuplacer placement exam (see Academic Advising Office, NC 1503). Students
with transfer or advanced placement credit should see an academic advisor
in the Mathematics Department.
