The Mathematics Department at Irvine Valley College offers a wide range of courses to meet the varied needs of students pursuing their academic and vocational goals. The department offers a comprehensive curriculum for students who plan to transfer to four-year colleges and universities. In addition, the department offers developmental courses taught in a variety of formats. Students can enroll in these courses for personal enrichment and/or to get ready to take courses at the college level. The department offers support for all mathematics students in the Mathematics Center, a facility staffed by faculty and tutors.

The completion of an Associate in Science in Mathematics for Transfer (AS-T in Mathematics) degree demonstrates commitment to the field and provides comprehensive preparation for upper-division courses in most professional careers related to mathematics.

Pursuant to SB1440, section 66756, to earn an AS-T in Mathematics, students must:

  • Completion of 60 semester units or 90 quarter units of degree-applicable courses,
  • Minimum overall grade point average of 2.0,
  • Minimum grade of “C” (or “P”) for each course in the major, and
  • Completion of IGETC and/or CSU GE-Breadth.

Program Student Learning Outcomes

Upon successful completion of this program, students will be able to:

  • Define, understand, and apply concepts of limits, differentiation, and integration to real world application problems.
  • Determine whether a theorem or definition applies in a given situation and use it appropriately.
  • Solve real world applications including estimating solutions and rejecting unreasonable results.
  • Interpret the solution of an application problem and provide an answer appropriate to the context of the problem.
  • Demonstrate the ability to use symbolic, graphical, numerical, and written representations of mathematical ideas.
  • Use technology in the problem solving process, when appropriate.
