\n

Steps for submission of the Senior Project are listed below.\u00a0 Final grades will not be submitted until ALL steps have been completed to the satisfaction of the Mathematics Department.<\/h3>\n

\n

1. On your due date by 5 pm, submit copies of the written senior project to the department chair in a format directed by your First and Second Readers. If required by your First or Second Reader, place a printed copy of your project in the Department Chair’s mailbox in Arter 103, the main office, for each reader requesting a hard copy. If one or both of your readers prefers a digital copy, submit a digital copy to the department chair through email.<\/div>\n
2. Contact your First and Second Readers to discuss available days and times to schedule your post-comp oral defense meeting.<\/div>\n
3. Following the oral defense meeting, you will receive comments and suggested revisions to the written portion of your comp. Once appropriate revisions have been made, bring a copy to your first reader (either digital or hard copy at the discretion of the First Reader) for final approval.<\/div>\n
\n

4. Once final approval from the First Reader is received, visit the <\/span>Library\u2019s Senior Project Submissions page<\/span><\/a> for the most current instructions and guidelines on the DSpace Submission Process. <\/span>Please consult with your project advisor about which permissions are right for you before filling out the permission \/ submission form. <\/span>If you have questions after reviewing the page contents, stop by the Research Desk in the library, send an email to dspace-help@allegheny.edu, or call Brian Kern<\/a>, the Director of Resource Management, <\/span>at 814-332-3792.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

5. Please complete this <\/span>form<\/span><\/a> to confirm you have submitted the final draft of your senior project.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div>\n

Printing Bound Copies<\/h3>\n

\n

\n
\n

Seniors have the option to print and bind up to three copies of their Senior Project at no charge (billed to the Provost’s office). If interested in this option, consult the Gator Printing website<\/a> for more information and with questions. Plan to submit Comp print orders three<\/strong> business days before you need the Comp to be picked up. Note that PDF format of your Senior Project ensures that all formatting prints as intended. If a student wants blank pages within the comp, they must add them before<\/em> sending the pdf file (with the exception of cover pages where the front is always printed single sided and the back is always left blank).\u00a0Bring the copies of your printed comp to the main office, Arter 103, and place them in your First Reader’s mailbox so that faculty signatures can be secured. Plan to stop back to Arter 103 prior to leaving campus to pick up your signed project.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

All entering students are required to take the Mathematics Placement Assessment. A student\u2019s placement score is a measure of their current <\/span>preparation for calculus courses taught at Allegheny College<\/span> and is used to determine which course is the most appropriate starting point for that student. In particular, the score will place a student into either MATH 100 (Algebra for College Mathematics), <\/span>MATH 140 (Calculus I with Precalculus, Part 1), or MATH 151 (Calculus I).<\/p>\n

The placement assessment consists of 30 questions covering algebra, pre-calculus, and trigonometry topics, including geometry and measurement; algebraic manipulation; equations, inequalities, and factoring; trigonometry; functions and their notation, including linear, polynomial, rational, trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions; graphs of functions; and word problems and modeling.<\/p>\n

The Mathematics Placement Assessment can be accessed via Self Service. Placement results will be displayed as soon as the assessment is completed.<\/p>\n

AP Credit and Transfer Credit<\/h4>\n

Students who submit an official AP score report to Allegheny or who receive transfer credit for an Allegheny Mathematics course may be eligible to start in a Mathematics course other than MATH 100, MATH 140, or MATH 151.<\/p>\n
