REVIEW COURSES

MATH REVIEW (MSM 400) 

MSM 400 COURSE DESCRIPTION (THIS COURSE IS OPEN TO STUDENTS ENROLLED IN ALL SIMON PROGRAMS.)
This is a non-credit master’s level math class that provides a review of statistics, algebra, and calculus concepts that are considered prerequisite to the program. Topics include sets,
differentiation, maxima-minima, partial derivatives, and simple integration. This is especially suited for students with little mathematics background, students who wish to bolster their confidence
in their math skills, or students who have not had college-level algebra and calculus in the recent past. Many of these concepts will be used in the core classes, especially STR 401 (Managerial
Economics).

MATH FOR MANAGEMENT (MSM 491)

MSM 491 COURSE DESCRIPTION (THIS COURSE IS OPEN TO STUDENTS ENROLLED IN ALL SIMON PROGRAMS.) 
This is a master’s level math class that is more intensive than MSM 400. Analysis and concepts in modern business rely heavily on quantitative methods. The objective of this course is to bring
incoming MBA or MS students "up to speed" with respect to the mathematical and statistical knowledge expected of them. The complexity of the course is on par with (college) freshman year
calculus, algebra, and introduction to probability and statistics. Necessary theories and intuition behind them will be covered. The focus of the course is primarily on applications in business,
economics, and related areas.
MSM 491 COURSE DETAILS
Math for Management is offered in the summer term only. While it is not included in the credits required for the MBA or MS degree, it will be a graded class to give students an assessment of
their mathematical skills. The GPA will appear on the official transcript, but will not be included in the cumulative GPA for the MBA or MS program. MSM 491 is a two credit class, with tuition
charged at the current per credit hour rate.
