In order for a High School or Two-Year College to qualify
to form a Mu Alpha Theta Chapter, it must offer:
-
High School: At least three semesters of algebra and two of geometry or their equivalent,
and one semester of more advanced mathematics. Two-Year Colleges:
Courses for which high school algebra and geometry are prerequisites, and at least three semesters
of analytic geometry, differential and integral calculus.
These requirements cannot be fulfilled by courses in general mathematics,
business mathematics, or arithmetic.
-
During the two semesters preceding that in which a petition is submitted,
the school must have employed at least one teacher whose primary teaching
field is mathematics and who has completed an undergraduate mathematics
major or its equivalent at an accredited college or university. The equivalent
of a mathematics major shall be understood to include differential and integral
calculus and at the very least, six semester hours of mathematics content courses above that.
