Program Outcomes
Program outcomes are overarching skills that are emphasized and reinforced throughout several courses in a specific program; they are measurable statements that define what students should know or be able to do by the end of a certificate or degree at Clark College. After successful completion of this program, students will be able to:
- Analyze and solve multi-step problems using techniques through single-variable calculus.
- Apply scientific and technological knowledge and methodologies to creatively solve technological or scientific problems.
- Demonstrate understanding of the derivative as an instantaneous rate of change and the definite integral as a limit of a sum.
- Apply fundamental principles and relationships from the Natural Sciences to analyze technological or scientific problems.
- Acquire scientific and technological information from appropriate sources to examine issues, claims or situations.
