The mission of the Department of Mathematics is to provide lifelong community access
to a dynamic curriculum that emphasizes mathematical concepts, communication and applications
through a commitment to sound pedagogy. In a mathematically dependent society the
department will strive to anticipate and meet the evolving needs of our students,
our faculty, our college and our community.
We offer Math classes for students in Career & Technical fields, as well as those who plan to start at Columbus State, then transfer to another college to complete their bachelor's degree. We strive to help all students, no matter what level of math knowledge they start with.

Severe Weather Policy
In the event that the college must close, or alter its operating schedule, because
of severe weather or other emergencies, an announcement will be broadcast on local
television and radio stations, and on the college's Web site at www2.cscc.edu. Those subscribed to the Rave Mobile Safety program will receive text alerts when campus must close due to emergency or weather-related
closings.
Students who reside in areas which fall under a Level III or worse Weather Emergency
should not attempt to drive to Columbus State even if the college remains open. Consult
your course syllabus for information on the makeup of missed homework, labs, tests,
or quizzes, or contact your instructor. It is the student's responsibility to keep
up with reading and other assignments when a scheduled class does not meet, whatever
the reason.

Random Math Quote:
NEW ! Semester MATH+STAT Courses 
(as of Dec 2011)
This information may still change, and does not include any "bridge" or temporary
transition courses which might be offered. NQE (no quarter equivalent) indicates an
essentially new course; LE and LB refer to lecture and lab hours. In a 16-week semester
there will be 15 weeks of instruction, followed by a finals week. A typical 3-credit
class will meet either MWF for 50 minutes, or T/Th for 80 minutes. Some classes will
be STAT, but still administered through the Math department.
S2S Student Tips:
Semesters begin 2012, August 29.
Visit cscc.edu/semesters for the latest info, answers, and tips.
Read the college’s pledge to students to know what’s expected of all parties.
Verify your major or declare one if you haven’t already. (Call the TIC, 287-5353, or submit a Change of Information form, available online, to Records and Registration.)
Run a Degree Audit Report (DARS) online to know where you stand. (Log on to CougarWeb and click on "My Degree Audit.")
Schedule required courses in a sequence, like Math 102, 103, 104, soon.
If you need to retake a quarter class, do so before semesters begin.
Attend an advising session, either program or individual, starting Summer 2011.
With an advisor, create a Transitional Plan of Study using your Degree Audit Report.
