Gateway courses

Each of these unlocks the largest share of downstream work on this map. Courses from other departments can appear here when they genuinely gate MAT coursework.

• MAT 130Functions and Mathematical Modelsopens 67 courses (7 directly)
• MAT 131Precalculus and Trigonometryopens 49 courses (2 directly)
• MAT 155Summer Calculus Iopens 47 courses (1.1 directly)
• MAT 150Calculus Iopens 47 courses (0.8 directly)
• MAT 147Calculus with Integrated Precalculus Iopens 45 courses (0.3 directly)
• MAT 148Calculus with Integrated Precalculus IIopens 44 courses (1.8 directly)

The map

Intro tiers at the top, advanced work below; arrows point from a prerequisite to the course it unlocks. Courses from other departments appear where they gate MAT work. Click any course to see what it requires and unlocks without leaving this page; hovering lights up its neighbors. The lists on this page carry the same courses in text form.

Showing the 129 MAT and feeder courses that have prerequisite links. 34 more MAT courses have no recorded prerequisites. They are listed under Tracks below, not drawn as loose dots here.

Concentration routes

The concentrations and majors that build on MAT, and how their requirements are structured. Expand a program to see which courses satisfy each group, then plan it in the Planner.

Tracks

Upper-level clusters, grouped by the gateway that opens them.

The longest ladders

The deepest prerequisite chains in MAT. These are the routes that take the most semesters to climb.
