Summer Course
Solid Foundations Pre-Calculus Essentials (PCE)
1 Unit, P/NP (optional)
Berkeley’s Math Department offers Pre-calculus Essentials (PCE), a 3-week course being offered during Summer Session E (July 25 - August 12). PCE was created by faculty in the Berkeley Math Department to focus on the essentials of what you need to know to excel in your first college math courses at Berkeley. The goal of this program is to prepare students for Berkeley introductory mathematics courses. Over a period of three weeks, the course offers live lectures, group peer-tutoring sessions, and worksheets. Students will be offered both a self-study and interactive peer-tutor group option. Enrollment in the PCE summer course is free if taken for no credit. A for-credit option (Math 98) will be available for a fee in Summer Session E, but the course material and experience will be the same whether it is taken for credit or not. All students enrolled in Math 1A, 10A, 16A, and 32 are encouraged to participate.
Registration for the program will go live in mid-summer (June/July). Incoming/current UC Berkeley undergraduates can sign up for our mailing list by completing this form, https://forms.gle/Su6fohKfW1kV8D828.
