The Associate of Science with an emphasis in Mathematics is a two-year degree for students who intend to transfer to a university to complete a mathematics or mathematics education degree. NCCC’s Mathematics program offers undergraduate training in intermediate algebra, college algebra, trigonometry, statistics, analytic geometry, calculus, real number system, matrix algebra, and differential equations. 


As a mathematics student at NCCC, you will be exposed to the principles which underlie the concepts of mathematic equations and problem solving. You may also engage in study that is tailored to meet specific needs and interests, which means you can gain a deeper understanding of the area that most interests you. Because the size of NCCC math classes is small, the faculty will get to know you as a person. They will not only show you the joys of exploring mathematics, but they will also help you work toward future career and educational opportunities.


NCCC math courses are offered on both the Ottawa and Chanute Campus. Evening classes meet once a week starting at 4:00pm and 6:45pm. Day sections are also available. Ottawa is an easy 30-minute drive from Lawrence.
