CALCULUS FOR ARCHITECTURE: MATH 117
This course is a survey of calculus for architecture majors. The course is taught in a lecture/recitation format. Differential and integral calculus of polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions is presented.
CALCULUS WITH ANALYTIC GEOMETRY: MATH 151, 152, 153, 254
This sequence is the traditional
calculus sequence. It meets calculus requirements in all
major areas. The courses are taught in a lecture/recitation format with
the class meeting with a faculty member three times a week and a
graduate teaching assistant twice a week. Math 151 covers limits,
continuity, differentiation of the algebraic and trigonometric
functions, Mean Value Theorem, curve sketching, related rates and other
applications. C- or better is
necessary to go from 151 to 152 and 152 to 153.
BIOLOGICAL CALCULUS WITH ANALYTIC
GEOMETRY: MATH 151L, 152L, 194L (pending)
This sequence is the traditional calculus sequence, only
with biologically oriented emphasis and applications. Math 151L
and 152L follow the traditional calculus very closely, including being
taught in a lecture/recitation format. However, the textbook is different from the one used in the 151 sequence. The third course will
depart from the traditional 153 to focus on a project-driven survey of
mathematical topics that have emerged as useful and important in the
biological sciences in recent years.
ACCELERATED CALCULUS: MATH 161,
162, 263
This three quarter sequence
(starting Autumn only) covers calculus at an accelerated pace. It is
designed for students with superior algebraic and geometric skills, who
place at Course Code L and who have studied calculus in high school. The sequence substitutes
for Math 151, 152, 153, and 254 and uses the same textbook as the 151
sequence. It is taught in a lecture/recitation format to well-prepared
students, regardless of their chosen major area of study. Because of
the accelerated pace, it is essential that students in these courses be
proficient and accurate with their precalculus skills; in addition,
Math
161 will assume mastery of the computational aspects of polynomial and
trigonometric differentiation. The course will briefly review the Mean
Value Theorem and selected topics in differentiation, and will then
concentrate on integral calculus of the polynomial, logarithmic,
exponential, trigonometric and inverse trigonometric functions,
integration techniques, and applications. Thus, Math 161 substitutes
for both Math 151 and 152.
HONORS ACCELERATED CALCULUS: MATH H161, H162, H263
This sequence (starting Autumn
only) is the honors versions of the accelerated calculus sequence
161,162 and 263, designed for students with credit for Math 151. These courses are taught daily by
faculty members in small classes with considerable student-teacher
interaction. Students in this sequence will be exposed to proofs and held to higher standards of mathematical rigor than those in nonhonors versions. They will be
expected to demonstrate mastery of definitions, statements and proofs
of theorems. Generally speaking, students who earn a B or better in
H161 have College Board Advanced Placement AB score of 5, or BC scores
of 3, 4 or 5.
Students who feel that H161 is an appropriate course option, whether or not they meet these criteria, should complete the math honors questionnaire and meet with the Math faculty member available at orientation.
HONORS ANALYSIS: MATH H190,
H191, H264
This enriched honors calculus
sequence (starting Autumn only) is intended to challenge
talented, highly motivated students
who enter the University already proficient with differential and
integral
calculus, regardless of their chosen major area of study. This
sequence is the most rigorous of the calculus options and is designed
to introduce students to the mathematical underpinnings of calculus and
stimulate the development of mathematical thinking. This sequence will
substitute for Math 151, 152, 153, 254, and 551 and also satisfies the
upper division analysis requirement (547, 548, 549) for mathematics
majors. The H190 sequence is taught by faculty members in small
sections with considerable student-teacher interaction. The texts for
these courses and the syllabi are significantly different from those
used in the 151 and 161 sequences.
Generally speaking, students who earn a grade of "B" or better in H190
have either:
1) participated in the College Board Advanced Placement
Program
and have received a 4 or 5 on the BC exam, or
2) studied calculus in high school and have a Math ACT score > 32 or
a Math SAT score > 700.
Students who feel that H190 is an appropriate course option,
whether or not they meet these criteria, should complete the math honors questionaire and
meet with the Math faculty member available at orientation.
The Honors Program at The Ohio State University is a unique opportunity to live and learn in a small community of dedicated scholars and students, while at the same time enjoying the advantages of being part of a major research university. Training in mathematics is at the core of any outstanding honors program in engineering, physical, biological or social sciences. With this in mind, the Ohio State Department of Mathematics has developed a unified four-year program of honors courses in mathematics serving the needs of a wide spectrum of honors undergraduate students. Both honors and non-honors students are eligible to enroll in honors math courses.
The foundation of the program is a one-year sequence in the calculus of one and several variables. The Department's appreciation of the varying levels and abilities of entering students is reflected in the availability of two honors sequences at this level. For those who are ready and eager to explore the deeper theoretical underpinnings of the calculus, the department offers the sequence Math H190-H191-H264. This enriched sequence, which is the most rigorous of the calculus options, is intended to stimulate the development of mathematical thinking. It is designed to challenge talented, highly motivated students who enter the University already familiar with differential and integral calculus, regardless of their chosen major area of study. The typical student has earned a 4 or 5 on the BC Advanced Placement Exam and has a Math ACT score >= 32, or a Math SAT score >= 700.
For those who have demonstrated technical mastery of calculus and who would like deeper insights into some of the theory that makes it all work, we offer the sequence Math H161-H162-H263. Students in this sequence will be exposed to proofs and held to higher standards of mathematical rigor than those in nonhonors versions. Although not as rigorous as H190, both of these options assume mastery of differentiation of polynomial and trigonometric functions, and compress the typical four-quarter calculus sequence into three quarters.
Students who feel that H161 or H190 are appropriate course options should complete the math honors questionnaire and consult with the Math faculty member available at orientation.
Students successfully completing either H263 (should also take Math 345 concurrently with H263) or H264 and interested in an in-depth study of the mathematics which forms the mathematical heart-and-soul of chemistry, physics and engineering will want to enroll in the second year sequence: Math H520-H521-H522. This sequence presents linear algebra, differential equations and complex analysis for honors students. While these courses are theory-and-proof oriented, they do not neglect the fundamental skills needed in scientific applications.
Successful completion of H520 qualifies a student for either the two-quarter sequence Math H540 - H541 or a sequence in number theory, Math H576 - H577. Math H540 and H541 are courses on the geometry and topology of n-dimensional spaces and manifolds. This material is key to understanding the world of modern physics and is valuable for students pursuing advanced degrees in mathematics, physics and engineering. The other sequence, H576- H577, presents the queen of Mathematics - Number Theory - in its historical development stressing mutually perpetuating bridges between number theory and algebra, geometry, and analysis. These sequences are offered in alternating years. Finally, H520 prepares students for a three-quarter sequence in abstract algebra, Math H590-H591-H592.
Math H590-H591-H592 is a sequence in algebraic theory covering the major structures of groups, rings and fields. This background is a prerequisite to advanced study in mathematics and also provides an understanding of the mathematical language of symmetry and invariants essential to chemistry, quantum physics and electrical engineering. It also provides the context for exploring coding theory, modern electrical engineering and the world of computer and information science.
For students who love the challenge of brain-teasing mathematical problems, we offer two honors problems courses: H187 (for students without a calculus background) and H487 (for students with calculus expertise). These courses also serve as a training ground for the national Putnam Exam in Mathematics with the course instructor coaching the Putnam team. They also help prepare students for our in-house Rasor-Bareis-Gordon Math Competition, which is held each February.
All honors courses are taught in small classes (25 or fewer students) with faculty instructors who committed to the needs of each student. Classmates will be among the best students at The Ohio State University, all eager to learn and explore new ideas. Recent honors students have received national recognition for their scholarship by being awarded Barry M. Goldwater Scholarships and/or National Science Foundation Graduate Fellowships. Within this University, our honors majors have been routinely elected to Phi Beta Kappa and earned "Excellence in Scholarship Awards", "President's Salute to Undergraduate Achievement" and other distinctions.
Graduation "With Distinction in Mathematics" may be accomplished by either researching a challenging problem in mathematics under the direction of one of our regular faculty members, or by completing selected graduate level course work. Recent graduates who pursued this option have gone on to successful doctoral studies in mathematics at Harvard, Stanford, University of Chicago, Berkeley, New York University, Michigan and other leading universities.
Undergraduate students can also engage in research activities by participating in one of the Working Groups. These Working Groups are small groups of faculty and students who are interested in a common research venture. Undergraduate students work directly with professors on interesting open-ended problems. Each student will be mentored by a faculty member. By exploring their projects together with together students and faculty, students will not only delve into an active research area but also learn how to work and communicate with others. In addition, opportunities exist for students to present research papers at various conferences around the country.
Another research opportunity exists with the Mathematical Biosciences Institute (MBI). The MBI fosters interactions between the biological, medical, and mathematical sciences and offers opportunities for undergraduates to participate in a research project each summer. MBI receives major funding from the National Science Foundation. Further information on either program can be found at this website http://mbi.osu.edu.
This is the cornucopia of possibilities available in the Honors Program in Mathematics at the Ohio State University. We hope you will join us and share the honors experience!

The information and registration on this page is for the two days of proficiency testing that is offered by the Mathematics Department for new students Autumn quarter who feel that their performance on the Mathematics Skills Assessment test does not accurately reflect their mathematical skills, and for those students who wish to qualify for more advanced courses including H161. These students will have an opportunity to take a proficiency test Monday and Tuesday immediately prior to the start of Autumn Quarter classes. Waiting until after the quarter begins to take a proficiency exam could cause the new student a travel inconvenience due to the Testing Center's move to West Campus.
Current OSU students refer to the EM Credit page for information about proficiency exams.
NOTE: Students should READ the following carefully before submitting a reservation. Each student will be asked if he/she read the information because each is responsible for knowing the content as it pertains to taking proficiency exams before Autumn quarter begins.
Q: Can I retake the Math Skills Assessment test to try to do better than I did the first time? Is there any other test I can take to show I don't need the class I placed into?
A: Students who want to try to improve their placement level may not take another math skills assessment test, but rather have the opportunity to take a proficiency exam (an exam similar to a final) over the course of their initial placement. A score of 70% or higher is required for consideration for being moved ahead to the next course. While any student is welcome to take advantage of this opportunity, experience has shown that very few students actually succeed in advancing their placement.
Q: Can I take a higher class without taking another exam?
A: Generally not. In order to be consistent and fair to everyone, the same placement procedures must be followed for all students. For full details about placement guidelines, and for information about those few situations in which exceptions may possibly be made, please refer to the FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT MATHEMATICS PLACEMENT.
Q: How do I sign up for the test?
A: Click on the reservations link at the bottom of the page and fill out the registration form to submit your answers online.
Q: Where do I go for the test? What do I need to bring?
A: Students need to report to room 113 in Dreese Lab (2015 Neil Ave.) on Monday, Sept. 22 and room 170 of the Eighteenth Ave. Building (EA) (209 W. 18th Ave.) on Tuesday, Sept. 23. Be sure to arrive at least one half-hour prior to the time for which you registered. All students must bring the following:
Q: Is there anything else I need to know?
To register online, please visit this page.
Caution: All students entering a course prior to the first midterm should be cautioned that they will be held accountable for the material that has already been covered and will be expected to take the next regularly scheduled midterm, which will become part of their grade.
If credit for Math 148 ------>go to 131
*With caution: Students should review functions and cover chapter on math of finance.
The math counselors would encourage the students, who are switching, to take 130 for the additional work with functions in general, and the logarithmic and exponential functions in particular. (This work might have been covered if the student is a transfer student.) Math 130 also covers a chapter on the mathematics of finance (amortization of loans, future value of annuities, etc) which isn't covered in 148. However, students may go directly to Math 131. Any questions on which is the most appropriate course, contact the math counselors.

EXAMINATIONS - Attendance at all midterms and the final is required. Some examinations are departmental common exams given in the evening. The locations of these examinations are announced in class. It is the responsibility of the student to remember the dates, times and locations of all examinations. If in doubt, the student should confirm with the lecturer, T.A., the course office (292-8470), the main office (292-4975), or posted on the bulletin board outside room 113 Mathematics Building.
SAMPLE EXAMS and TEXTBOOK TITLES-Review problems and sample exam questions for some courses 150 and below can found online at http://www.math.ohio-state.edu/courses/.
PSYCH YOURSELF FOR MATH- Three books, available in paperback at most book stores, are recommended for those suffering from "math anxiety":
SELF STUDY- The Schaum's Outlines for mathematics are an excellent resource for self study. It is possible to begin a review with basic arithmetic and carry it through calculus. These outlines are reasonably priced and are available in the campus area bookstores.
OFFICE OF COUNSELING AND CONSULTATION SERVICES- This office provides quarterly workshops on test anxiety, test taking skills, study skills, etc. In addition, they offer general counseling for students experiencing academic and/or emotional difficulties available on a walk-in basis as well as by appointment. The office is located in the new Younkin Success Center on Neil Ave.
OFFICE FOR DISABILITY SERVICES (ODS)- This office provides services for students with documented disabilities. These students are provided exam accommodations, adapted equipment and counseling services to assist them in accessing the classroom and the University community. ODS also provides a diagnostic testing service to help students determine if they have a learning disability.
MINORITY AFFAIRS- The Office of Minority Affairs may provide tutors for minority students in math courses, Math 050 through Math 153. Students should complete an application form in 1030 Lincoln Tower. For additional information, call the Office of Retention Services at 292-8732.
COURSE OFFICE - This office can assist in the resolution of students' registration problems in mathematics courses, requests to change to a different section and/or different time, granting permission to add courses (after the first week of classes), resolving missing grades, and providing math exams to the Office of Disability Services. The Course Office is located in 113 Math Building and is open Monday - Friday, from 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
From time to time throughout the quarter, you may experience unexpected and perhaps sudden difficulties in connection with your mathematics courses. Some difficulties may be attributed to the course content, whereas others may be more difficult to assign. Some of you may feel that fault should be assigned to your instructors or perhaps to the Department of Mathematics in general.
We would like to help you through such difficulties as best we can. Attempt to identify your lecture/homework difficulties and use the office hours of your lecturer and/or recitation teacher to clarify these trouble spots. Many problems can also be alleviated with one-on-one discussions of the content with others in your class. You may also access one of the mathematics tutor rooms which are available to you at no cost. Further, there is a list of private tutors whom you can hire for pay. The list is kept at the receptionist's desk on the first floor of the Mathematics Tower, 231 West 18th Avenue. Finally, the Department has a counseling office for additional assistance concerning undergraduate mathematics matters (292-6994).
Remember, if it doesn't seem to be going your way, take an active role in helping yourself. Try to keep abreast of problems as they develop, and try conscientiously to pin-point them. We would encourage you to remember that the first contact for your difficulties or complaints should be the recitation teacher (if applicable), next the lecturer and the third person should be the Vice-chairperson of the Department of Mathematics. For courses 050 through 150 see Dr. Daniel Shapiro, 292-5101 or email shapiro@math.ohio-state.edu. For courses 151 and above see Dr. Ron Solomon, 292-5101 or e-mail solomon@math.ohio-state.edu.
In your University experience, you will encounter a number of accents unlike your own. Give yourself some time to adjust to those accents with patience and tolerance. As you proceed to a professional or work experience after graduation, you will also encounter various accents.
Complaints about serious injustices and mistreatment should be brought to the attention of the departmental ombudsman, Professor Solomon, 124 Mathematics Tower, 292-5101. You have a duty to yourself and other students to seek a just resolution. Think out your position carefully and put it in writing so that you are sure of your position and how you want to express it. Be specific in your statements and don't exaggerate. We will seek an equitable and rapid resolution.
We wish you all the best in your mathematics class this quarter.

Most teacher licensure programs are delivered as Masters level programs (except Physical Education, Business Education and Technology Education). As a result, undergraduate degrees in a subject area will be required for entry into these graduate/licensure programs and consequently the mathematics requirement will depend upon the undergraduate major selected. Several non-teaching programs are available at the undergraduate level.
