Depending upon your placement, you may fulfill the Basic Skills Writing requirement by completing ENL 213: Advanced Academic Writing and Research for Non-native Speakers of English or by completing CAS 100 or WRT 105. You may have to complete one or more ENL courses before taking ENL 213, depending upon your English proficiency.

To fulfill this requirement, you must complete two three-credit or four-credit courses in a foreign language. You may continue study of a language that you studied in high school, or you may begin a different language. The two courses need not be in the same language. If you choose to continue study in a language you had studied previously, you must take the Foreign Languages Department placement test in order to register for an appropriate level course.

You may complete the Foreign Language requirement in any one of the following languages:

Language study includes speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills. Courses in Latin and Ancient Greek focus on reading and grammar, and do not stress speaking, listening, or writing.

Notes:

In most academic years, courses numbered 101 and 201 are offered in the fall semester; courses numbered 102 and 202 are offered in the spring semester. The exceptions are usually French and Spanish which may be offered more frequently.

ARB 202, CHI 202, FRE 202, GER 202, HEB 202, HIN/SAS 202, ITA 202, JPS 202, KOR 202, PRS 202, POL 202, POR 202, RUS 202, SPA 202, SWA 202, TRK 202 may be used in two requirements: Skills (either Foreign Languages or Additional Skills) and Divisional Requirements. (See Humanities Divisional List.) While these courses may help complete two requirements, each is still worth only three or four credits.

Special Note to Students with Advanced Placement Credit in a Foreign Language:

You may complete part of this requirement by earning a score of three or better on the C.E.E.B. Advanced Placement Examination in Chinese; French Language and Culture; German Language and Culture; Italian Language and Culture; Japanese Language and Culture; Latin; Spanish Language, or Spanish Literature. Each of these tests substitutes for ONE language course. (See Advanced Placement for Syracuse course equivalents.) You cannot receive credit toward your degree for a lower-level course in a language if you have already received credit for a higher-numbered course in the same language, nor can you repeat a course for which you have already received AP credit and receive credit for both the SU course and the AP test. For example, if you receive AP credit for SPA 102, you cannot take SPA 101 or 102 for additional credit toward your Bachelor’s degree.

Special Note to International Students: If your native language is not English, you may petition to have the Basic Skills Foreign Language requirement waived. Please go to the Newhouse Undergraduate Advising and Records Office, Room 316 Newhouse 3, for further instructions.

The purpose of the Quantitative Skills Requirement is to enable you to interpret and present numeric, symbolic, tabular and graphical information effectively in communication with others. These courses are designed to help you analyze data, test hypotheses, solve problems, and appreciate the limitations of mathematical and statistical methods in your own work and the work of others. To complete this requirement, you must pass one of the following applied mathematics or statistics courses:

• MAT 121 Probability and Statistics for the Liberal Arts I (4 credits)
• MAT 183 Elements of Modern Mathematics (4 credits)
• MAT 221 Elementary Probability and Statistics I (3 credits)
• STT 101 Introduction to Statistics (3 credits)

There are some differences among these choices which are explained below.

MAT 121 and STT 101 are the most basic mathematics courses which fulfill the Quantitative Skills Requirement and provide introductions to statistics with emphasis on the analysis of real data sets. You will be expected to have a reasonable level of competence in high school algebra to do well in these classes.

MAT 121 teaches probability and statistics by focusing on data and reasoning. This course includes data display, numerical measures of data, elementary probability, discrete distributions, normal distributions, and confidence intervals.

STT 101 also provides a working knowledge of statistics: descriptive statistics, sampling distributions, and data analysis using software.

MAT 121 is taught by the Mathematics Department; STT 101 is taught by members of the cross-disciplinary statistics program. (STT 101 is offered infrequently; MAT 121 is offered regularly.)

If you have credit for pre-calculus or calculus (including AP credit, transfer credit, or Project Advance credit), you cannot receive credit for MAT 121 or STT 101 or any mathematics course numbered below 180.

If you have gotten a “C” or better in any mathematics course numbered 180 or higher, you cannot receive credit for MAT 121 or STT 101 or any course numbered below 180.

MAT 183 differs from the other courses on this list in that it includes some probability, but no statistics. This course introduces linear equations, matrices, linear programming, and discrete probability theory. MAT 183 is especially appropriate for students interested in management, finance, economics, or related areas. Students who choose to continue their study of mathematics often follow this course with a calculus class (MAT 284). However, you may also take this course if you have already earned calculus credit. Calculus is not a pre-requisite. This course assumes a mastery of high school algebra.

MAT 221 provides a more rigorous introduction to probability and statistics than MAT 121 or STT 101. MAT 221 is particularly appropriate for those students interested in social sciences such as politics, sociology, and psychology. In MAT 221 students are introduced to probability, the design of experiments, sampling theory, the introduction of computers for data management, the evaluation of models, and estimation of parameters. This course assumes a mastery of high school algebra. MAT 221 may be taken by students who have calculus credits, but calculus is not a prerequisite.

Mathematics Placement Test:

Before you may register for any of the above courses, you must take the Mathematics Placement Test. Placement tests are available on MySlice where you will find a link to take your placement test and to view your placement test results. If you are taking the test after your first semester, you must contact the Newhouse Undergraduate Advising and Records Office (443-4722) at least 24 hours before you plan to take the test. A staff member will enter an eligibility code on your record that will activate your access to the test within 24 hours.

Math Notes:

MAT 112: Algebraic Operations and Functions does not fulfill the Quantitative Skills requirement; it will count as an Arts and Sciences elective course. Students who do not attain the algebra score required for placement into MAT 121 and who need to strengthen their algebra skills may take Algebraic Operations and Functions (MAT 112) before taking a course on the quantitative skills list.

MAT 183 is generally available to Newhouse students in the spring semester.

CALCULUS (MAT 284, 285, 286, 295, or AP Calculus) CANNOT BE USED TO COMPLETE THE QUANTITATIVE SKILLS REQUIREMENT. These courses may be used as part of the Divisional Requirements in Natural Sciences and Mathematics.

MAT 112, MAT 121, and STT 101 CANNOT BE TAKEN FOR CREDIT IF A STUDENT HAS COMPLETED A MATH COURSE NUMBERED ABOVE 180 AND HAS RECEIVED A GRADE OF C OR BETTER.

This rule also applies to students who received AP credit in Mathematics since they would have successfully completed the equivalent of MAT 194 or MAT 285 and 286 or MAT 295 and 296.

MAT 121 cannot be taken for credit if a student has received a C or better in STT 101.

STT 101 cannot be taken for credit if a student has received a grade of C or better in MAT 121 or MAT 221.

MAT 221 may be used to fulfill the Quantitative Skills requirement or the Additional Skills requirement, but not both.

Generally, students receive credit for ONE of the following:

• Advanced Placement in Statistics
• MAT 121
• MAS 261 (Introductory Statistics for Management, School of Management)

*Notes:

HNR courses are available to students in the Renee Crown Honors Program.

Credit will be given for only one of the following: PHI 107 or PHI 109.

Courses listed under “Other Schools and Colleges” may be used to fulfill the Writing Intensive Requirement, but they may not be counted toward the 65 credits in the Arts and Sciences needed for graduation unless the courses are cross-listed with the College of Arts and Sciences.

Writing Intensive courses have been specifically designed to give attention to developing writing ability while studying another subject matter. These courses are intended to familiarize students with the thought processes, structures, and styles associated with writing in the liberal arts.

You are required to complete two Writing Intensive courses from the list below. Some of these courses may also be used to fulfill Divisional Requirements and Minor Requirements. If one or more of these courses overlap with other requirements, you would receive credit only once; however, you would gain more elective credits because each course could be used to fulfill more than one requirement.

Transfer credit or test credits, such as Advanced Placement Credits, cannot be used to satisfy the Writing Intensive requirement. (Project Advance courses may be used to fulfill this requirement since they are Syracuse University courses.)
