Pre Health Mathematics

This course, combined with MA 216, Pre-Health Math II College, is designed to assist students to understand mathematics and use it effectively. MA 021 focuses on the math skills required in many college-based health care studies. Students will construct their own mathematical ideas and make connections to previously learned material. Students will also explore mathematical ideas through application to the real world, with emphasis on the health sciences. Concepts studied include numeracy fundamentals, systems of measurement and dimensional analysis. Students will develop essential critical thinking and problem-solving skills through exposure to application problems, including dosage calculations, solution, dilutions, concentrations, and pH.
