AA/AS in Mathematics

The associate of science in mathematics is meant to prepare students to continue toward a bachelor's degree. Students planning to transfer elsewhere should confirm which courses the receiving school will accept. Goals include working fluently with calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations, and being able to communicate mathematics clearly in speech and in writing. The degree consists of general education courses, including writing and calculus, plus the mathematics discipline core. Graduation calls for a 2.0 average, though departments may ask for a higher figure. The published curriculum adds up to 60 semester credit hours. Academic standards in the listing include an overall average of at least 2. Prospective students are advised to review the official Utah Valley University program page for the current course list, advising contacts, and guidance on how to sequence classes, and should speak with a department adviser before planning a schedule or declaring the major.
