ICAS Mathematics Competencies Subcommittee Survey

Dear Colleagues:

We are asking that you complete a quick (10-minute) survey to help define mathematical expectations in a variety of disciplines across the California Community Colleges (CCC), California State University (CSU), and University of California (UC) systems. In particular, we are interested in understanding how mathematics is employed in both mathematical and non-mathematical courses throughout a student’s academic journey.

This survey is being conducted by the Mathematics Competencies Subcommittee of the Intersegmental Committee of the Academic Senates (ICAS). This subcommittee is charged with writing a Statement on Competencies in Mathematics Expected of Entering College Students, which was last revised in 2013.

The majority of the survey is designed to elicit your opinions on the significance of various mathematical skill sets within your discipline’s course offerings. Your input is invaluable and will aid the subcommittee as it formulates comprehensive mathematical expectations, ultimately guiding high school students aspiring to pursue specific fields.

Click here to start the 10-minute survey on Mathematical Expectations.

The survey will be open until Friday, February 16, 2024. Thank you for taking time to help inform our efforts.
