Develop critical thinking and reasoning skills for real-world problem-solving in a variety of settings. Choose from two sequences of math courses, pre-college and college-level, to meet your needs.
In many disciplines, mathematics is used to help make sense of phenomena observed in the world. Math also can help us develop critical thinking and reasoning skills that can be used to solve problems in a variety of applications. Pierce College offers two sequences of math courses, pre-college and college-level, to meet the needs of the individual student and his or her goals.
Courses in statistics and computer science are highly recommended for math majors. Math majors should also take one of the sequences of science courses such as physics or chemistry. See your advisor for specific recommendations.
To better understand the course sequencing, please take a look at these flow charts.
