General Education Requirements

FQ: Quantitative Reasoning 2018-Current

Foundations Requirement, 3 credits

Quantitative Reasoning courses develop mathematical reasoning skills at the college level. Students apply mathematical concepts to the interpretation and analysis of quantifiable information in order to solve a wide range of problems arising in pure and applied research in specific disciplines, professional settings, and/or daily life.

This is different than the 3 credit Quantitative Reasoning (GQR) Requirement which is a UH Hilo Structural Requirement and has course alphas other than MATH.
