Many university departments require credits in mathematics at the first-year or second-year level for admission to certain upper-level courses. Students are therefore urged to consult the appropriate calendars, counselling, or a mathematics instructor at Kwantlen for details of specific mathematics requirements.
MATHEMATICS COURSES FOR SCIENCE STUDENTS
The normal sequence of mathematics courses for students who wish to receive credit for first-year calculus in sciences or applied sciences should be:
However, students who plan to study life sciences at SFU or UBC may take MATH 1130, MATH 1230.
Students who intend to complete their second year of a science program at Kwantlen may (depending on their program) also require MATH 2315, 2321, 2322, 2331, 2335, 3322, 3421
Note
First-year science calculus (MATH 1120, 1220 or in some cases MATH 1130, 1230) are required for those planning to study mathematics, science, applied science, agriculture, forestry, pharmacy, medicine or dentistry.
MATHEMATICS COURSES FOR BUSINESS, COMMERCE AND ECONOMIC STUDENTS
Students wishing to transfer to a commerce, business administration or economics degree program at a university should consult the appropriate calendar or speak with a counsellor with regard to mathematics requirements. However, the normal sequence of courses should be as per the following:
MATHEMATICS COURSES FOR NON-SCIENCE STUDENTS
Students whose major interests lie outside of the sciences and who would like to study the structure and development of Mathematics from the point of view of the non-mathematician are encouraged to take MATH 1116 (Mathematical Explorations). Students with a P or better in either Principles of Math 11 or Applications of Math 11 are eligible to take this course. This course can be used to partially fulfill the quantitative requirement for the BA degree.
