The Master in Education program is grounded in two main purposes: a space for students to understand their professional knowledge and to make meaningful links among this knowledge, and the conceptual and theoretical knowledge of educational research.

This non-credit interactive course is intended to prepare students for university level math courses. Some of the main topics studied in this course are mathematical functions, trigonometry, and an introduction to limits.

This online course uses Moodle and Collaborate (a microphone and speakers or headset is required) and features 12 lessons, video lectures, supplementary materials as well as guidance and feedback from the instructor. This is a great opportunity to prepare for successful participation in university math courses, from the convenience of your home, and with flexibility for your schedule.

Mathematics is the science of numbers, quantity and space. The aim of University Preparatory Math for Professional Programs (non-credit) is to provide a student-oriented math course for learning or reviewing mathematical concepts and skills that are necessary for success in a variety of professional programs (e.g. Nursing, Nutrition, Human Kinetics or Business Administration).

(CRN 14064/Lab 14086) This course will give an introduction to some of the quantitative methods used in the fields of business. A presentation of mathematics applicable to business, including functions, modelling, finance, regression, forecasting, simulations and linear porgramming. Use of spreadsheets will be a fundamental part of this course. Acceptibel for credit in all programs. May only be used as an open or an approved elective in mathematics or computer science programs. Credit will be granted for only one of MATH 105 and MATH 205. Three credits.

(CRN 14065/Lab 14087) An introduction to differential calculus of a single variable with applications to the physical, life, and social sciences. Topics include limits; differentiation of polynomial, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions; inverse functions and their derivatives; implicit differentiation; curve sketching and applied max-min problems. The format of MATH 106 has been structured to provide students with additional learning resources to support and foster a conducive learning environment. Credit will be granted for one of MATH 106 or ENGR 121 or MATH 126. Six credits of calculus is required in the BSc Major, Advanced Major, or Honors program. Three credits.
