Sab Matsumoto Department of Mathematics College of the Canyons

 There are three types of mathematicians in the world.  Those that can count and those that cannot.  Mathematics is not (just) about numbers…

 Math teachers (duh!)  Physical sciences (chemistry, physics, etc.)  Engineering (EE, civil, chemical, electrical, mechanical, nuclear, aerospace, etc.)  Actuarial science (insurance)  Architecture  Computer science, computer security  Operations research (cost/benefit analysis)  Statistics  Biomathematics  Economics

 Biology/biochemistry/medicine  Law  Finance  Business management  Social sciences (political science, sociology, anthropology, psychology, linguistics, etc.)  Sports analysis  Marketing/advertising  Art/animation  Music theory  Forensics  Languages/linguistics

 You …  Just to function as a citizen  Why does EVERY MAJOR at EVERY COLLEGE have mathematics requirements?  Not necessarily for mathematics knowledge  For problem-solving skills  For logical and critical thinking  So don’t say, “I don’t need this stuff.”

 Probably twice as fast  Not much time for in-class work  Probably a LOT more homework  Attendance? (No one will call your mom)  Practice tests?  Make-up tests?  In short, YOU must be responsible.

 Take the Placement Test seriously! (It may save you a year or two)  025/026: Arithmetic  058: Pre-Algebra  060: Beginning Algebra  070/075: Intermediate Algebra  083: Geometry  Review your high school math!

 Inexpensive  Local  Often, smaller class size  Teaching-centered faculty  Can end up with the same degree

 California Community Colleges: the largest system of institutions of higher (post- secondary) learning in the world  My experience with California Community Colleges…  It’s up to you…
