WELCOME TO THE MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES DIVISION
The Division of Mathematical Sciences offers instruction to students in mathematics, computer science and engineering. Mathematics courses include basic skills and general education, courses for future teachers, and courses for students majoring in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The computer science program includes a variety of computer language courses and preparation for students transferring to four-year computer science programs. In engineering two courses are offered.
The division is dedicated to promoting student success at all levels. For information about the El Camino College Mathematics Placement Test, go to Math Placement Test. The Mathematics Study Center (MBA 119) provides one-to-one tutoring on a drop-in basis. Many mathematics courses provide students the opportunity to use computational and homework technology, such as graphing calculators, Mathematica, WebAssign, and MyMathLab.
