About this course

Understanding Discrete Mathematics for your Nexford credit.

What is Discrete Mathematics?

Discrete Mathematics is the study of math built from distinct, countable pieces rather than continuous quantities. It focuses on topics such as logic, sets, counting, probability, sequences, and proof methods, which are widely used in computer science, engineering, and other fields that depend on precise reasoning.

How the course teaches you

Discrete Mathematics (Maths 230) is organized with video lessons and graded work across attendance, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, weighted 25% each. Because it is a 4-credit course, finishing it produces transcripted credit that Nexford University recognizes as Math Elective (Gen Ed), which can satisfy a general-education requirement in an eligible degree plan.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The topics in Discrete Mathematics—logic, sets, counting, probability, sequences, proof methods, graph theory, and Boolean Algebra—build the kind of reasoning used in technical and business settings. At Nexford, that can fit into programs such as the Associate of Applied Science or Bachelor of Business Administration as a general-education math elective, helping you move forward without adding a course that does not count toward the degree.

Skills you walk away with

Construct logical proofs and identify fallaciesUse truth tables and logical connectors correctlyWork with sets, functions, and relationsApply counting methods, permutations, and combinationsUse induction, recursion, and generating functionsSolve discrete probability and expected value problemsApply Boolean algebra and graph-theory concepts

Taking this course toward Nexford

After you complete the course, the transcript is sent for review and Nexford's registrar applies it as Math Elective (Gen Ed) if it matches their evaluation. That designation means the course can count toward a general-education requirement in a Nexford program rather than sitting as unused elective credit. Nexford is a DEAC-accredited transfer partner of UPI Study and offers a free, no-obligation transfer credit evaluation, with a transfer ceiling of 90 credits total. For students building toward a Nexford degree, including options like the Associate of Applied Science or Bachelor of Business Administration, this can help preserve room within the 75% transfer limit for other required coursework.

Who this course is for

This course is a good fit for students planning to use transfer credit at Nexford and who want a general-education math elective recognized in a degree plan. It is especially practical for people finishing a credential, adults returning to school, or students watching transfer limits closely, since Nexford allows up to 90 credits, or 75%, to transfer. It is not the best choice if you need a purely applied math class with no proof, logic, or counting content.
