This section of the catalog concerns itself with mathematics. This section covers math from a basic review of arithmetic through calculus and differential equations. Mathematics is the language of science and engineering, and therefore is also the language used to describe measurement and measurement uncertainty.

Course No. | Course Title | Eq. Hours* | Prerequisites |
MATH009 | Review of Basic Mathematics A review of basic mathematics. This course reviews the basic types of numbers, basic mathematical operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and exponentiation, the manipulation of fractions, and the use of simple formulas. |
5 | none |
MATH011 | Algebra - Variables, Polynomials, and Equations Variables, Polynomials, and Equations create the foundation for all algebraic principles, and are the topic of this second in our algebra series of courses. |
1 | MATH10 |
MATH015 | Algebra - Linear Equations This is one of a series of short courses on topics concerning algebra. This particular course concerns the equation of a line. |
1 | MATH014 |
MATH017 | Algebra - Quadratic Equations This is course on the quadratic equation is one of a series of courses on topics of algebra. This particular course is on quadratic equations and the quadratic formula. |
2 | MATH015 |
MATH041 | Trigonometry - Triangulation This is a course in applied trigonometry. The application is triangulation, which uses the law of sines to determine the lengths of the sides of a triangle when one side and two angles are known. Triangulation has many applications in surveying, astronomy, motion capture, and radar, to name a few. |
2 | MATH040 |
MATH50 | Applied Math for Calibration Technicians The purpose of this course is to cover the basic mathematical concepts that are part of the ASQ Certified Calibration Technician exam. |
4 | none |
MATH51 | Applied Statistics for Calibration Technicians This course is the second course of a three part series of training courses covering the applied math and statistics body of knowledge for the ASQ Certified Calibration Technician exam, although this course does go a little further into the topic than is covered in the exam. The topic of this course is probability and statistics and their use in metrology. |
5 | MATH50 |
MATH104 | Introduction to Coordinate Systems The purpose of this course is to give a rudimentary explanation of various coordinate systems used to describe points in space. It assumes basic understanding of matrix algebra, although the basic concepts are introduced. |
3 | Understanding of Algebra |
MATH110 (free) | Introduction to Complex Arithmetic This is an introductory course for complex arithmetic. Defines complex numbers, and the mathematical operations that can be performed on them |
5 | Understanding of Algebra/Trig |
MATH119 | Functions, Limits, and Continuity This course introduces the concepts of function, limits, and continuity. These concepts, and the theorems that are presented on these concepts, are the building blocks for defining the concepts in differential and integral calculus of one variable. |
5 | Understanding of Algebra |
MATH120 | Differential Calculus for Measurement This is the second course in the LearningMeasure.com calculus series. This course will cover the topic of differential calculus with applications to measurement. |
5 | MATH119 |
MATH121 | Sequences, Limits, and Series The third course in a five course series on calculus. This course concerns sequences and series, and their limits. |
5 | MATH120 |
MATH200 | Introduction to Differential Equations This is an introductory course in differential equations. This is the first in a series of courses on the topic. This course covers notation and classification of differential equations. |
2 | MATH126 |
MATH201 | First Order Differential Equations This is a course on first order ordinary differential equations. This is the second course in a series on ordinary differential equations. |
5 | MATH200 |
MATH202 | Applications of First Order ODEs This is a continuation of the series on ordinary differential equations, which discusses applications of the first order ODEs studied in the previous course in this series. |
2 | MATH201 |
MATH230 | Least Squares Line Fits This course covers the topic of finding a "best fit" line through a set of data. This course assumes some basic understanding of uncertainty analysis, differential calculus, and statistics. The calculus required is minimal, primarily the concept of derivative and finding the minimum of a function. |
