Mathematics includes the study of algebra, probability, statistics, number theory, geometry, trigonometry, Calculus, Differential equations, analytic reasoning and problem solving skills. Guilford Technical Community College (GTCC) offers the first two years of mathematics courses and courses in other disciplines for students who want to major or minor in mathematics for a baccalaureate program.

The two-year program listed below is designed to meet the requirements of Associate of Science to be completed and prepare students for Bachelor of Science/Art in mathematics from regional public and private institutions. Students interested in transferring to four-year college or university after GTCC should consult with the institution they will be attending, their faculty, and/or GTCC Student Success Center to ensure transfer of the appropriate courses for that institution for both General Education or pre-major electives.

2 Students can choose 8 hours of natural sciences from the following list: CHM 151/152, BIO 111/112, PHY 151/152, PHY 251/252, AST 151/151A, BIO 110, GEL 111, or PHY 110/110A. Students transferring to NC A&T or UNC-Chapel Hill should take PHY 251/252 sequence.

3 Students should take MUS 110 for most institutions or MUS 112 if transferring to UNCW.

4 For most institutions students may select from ECO 251, ECO 252, PSY 150, POL 120, or SOC 210. Students transferring to Guilford College should take ECO 251 and students transferring to UNCW should take SOC 210.

5 For students transferring to UNCC can take CSC 134. For students transferring to WSSU should take CSC 120. For students transferring to UNCG should take CSC 151. Some institutions do not require Computer Science courses.  Students should take MAT 280 unless transferring to UNCW, they should take MAT-152.  Students transferring to UNC-Chapel Hill should take BIO 111 instead of MAT 280.

6 For most institutions students should take PHI 240. Students transferring to UNCW is recommended to take ENG 231. Students transferring to ASU should take ENG 241 or 242. Students transferring to UNCG should take COM 231.

7 Students who enter in mathematics sequence lower than MAT 172 may use this additional hours. Students transferring to UNCC should take one of the following courses: HIS 112, GEO 111, GEO 112, POL 210, or POL 220, MAT 280 and BIO 111. Students transferring to HPU should take REL 110, REL 211, REL 212, or REL 221. Depending on the transferring institution, students should consider taking foreign language and/or Physical Education courses. Students transferring to NC A&T should take MAT 152 and BIO 111. For UNCG, students should take MAT 280, CIS 115 and foreign language courses. For UNC-Chapel Hill, students should take BIO 112 and foreign language courses.  A total of 11 additional pre-major/general education electives are required.
