Functions - Grade 11, College/University (MCF 3M1)
This course extends students' experiences with functions and trigonometry, and introduces some financial applications of mathematics. Students will develop facility in operating with polynomial, rational, and exponential expressions; and they will develop an understanding of inverses and transformations of functions. Students will study sequences and series and apply it to problems in personal finance.
Mathematics of Personal Finance - Grade 11, College (MBF 3C1)
Students will broaden their understanding of exponential growth and important areas of finance. They will develop skills in manipulating exponential expressions; solve problems and investigate financial applications involving compound interest and annuities; and apply mathematics in making informed decisions about transportation, accommodation, and career choices.
Mathematics for Everyday Life - Grade 11, Workplace (MEL 3E1)
Students will broaden their understanding of mathematics as it applies in important areas of day-to-day living. Students will solve problems associated with earning money, paying taxes and making purchases; apply calculations of simple and compound interest in saving, investing, and borrowing; and calculate the costs of transportation and travel. This course is intended for students who do not intend to study mathematics at any post secondary institute in the future.
Grade 12
Geometry and Discrete Mathematics - Grade 12, University (MGA 4U1)
This course enables students to broaden their mathematics knowledge and skills as related to abstract mathematical topics and to solving complex problems. Vectors, proofs, and combinatorics are the three main areas of study. This course is designed for students who are pursuing a career with a heavy focus on mathematics at university (engineering, pure mathematics, computer science, physical sciences).
Advanced Functions and Introductory Calculus - Grade 12, University (MCB 4U1)
This course provides students with background skills in functions as a foundation for the study of the elementary principles of differential calculus. The intent of this course is to prepare students for university calculus and the wide range of programs that use the skills of calculus (i.e. engineering, social sciences, economics).
Mathematics of Data Management - Grade 12, University (MDM 4U1)
Students will apply methods for organizing and analyzing large amounts of information; apply counting techniques, probability and statistics in modeling and solving problems; and carry out a culminating project that integrates the expectations of the course and encourages perseverance and independence. Students planning to pursue university programs in business, the social sciences, or the humanities will find this course of particular interest.
