Quantitative Literacy*

56-1728

Quantitative Literacy surveys the ways that mathematics is used in the real world. As our society grows more technologically complex, the ability to interpret and analyze quantitative information has become an increasingly essential skill for citizenship. The goal of this course is to develop the reasoning capacity, critical thinking skills, and statistical literacy needed to make sense of issues that routinely appear in the media. Essential topics in consumer mathematics will also be covered.

Course descriptions are stored in OASIS and are maintained by the Associate Dean for each School.
