Mathematics

Mission:  The Inver Hills Community College mathematics students will develop the skills in and attitudes toward mathematics that will help them appreciate the value of mathematics and be able to apply it in their daily lives and careers, thus motivating them to become lifelong learners of mathematics.

The Math Department will be offering Inver Hill's first ever Quality Matters recognized course, Math 840-99 Introductory Algebra, during Spring 2012.  This course met all of the Quality Matters review standards and is an example of quality online instruction!
