Distance Calculus @ Shorter University

Courses Offered

The courses offered in the Distance Calculus program are:

University-level calculus courses ("engineering calculus")
University-level business calculus courses ("business calculus")
Full three (3) and four (4) Unit/Credit courses
Transferable to most institutions: these are standard calculus sequence courses, interchangable with Freshman and Undergraduate Calculus courses at most institutions
Satisfy engineering, science, computer science, and mathematics degree requirements
Satisfy business degree requirements
Satisfy MBA graduate school entrance requirements

All students: full-time Suffolk University students or part-time CAPS students, receive the same FULL course credit, applicable to degree-seeking programs of study.
