Mathematics handbook
- Fundamental (or Theoretical) Mathematics for those with a significant interest in the subject in its own right, either from a vocational standpoint or because of its intrinsic interest
- Cross Disciplinary Mathematics (Contemporary Applied Mathematics). This is an excellent way to acquire mathematical skills together with a broad knowledge of one or more major areas of contemporary science and technology, including bioinformatics (human genome project), computational science, information technology, astrophysics, and other modern applied mathematics
- Complementary Programs for those whose major interest is in another area (eg biology, chemistry, computing, economics, engineering, geography, information technology, physics, statistics) for which they need to make use of mathematical tools and techniques at a range of different levels.
Mathematics topics available to students in their first year of study are arranged in three streams; modelling, advanced and Honours pathway.
Programs in Related DisciplinesThis is an excellent way to acquire mathematical skills together with a broad knowledge of one or more major areas of contemporary science and technology, including bioinformatics (human genome project), computational science, information technology, astrophysics, and other modern applied mathematics.
A full list of mathematics first year courses, including course outlines, is available.
Second Year CoursesA full list of mathematics second year courses, including course outlines, is available.
Third/Fourth Year CoursesA full list of mathematics third and fourth year courses, including course outlines, is available. This courses are also available for Honours.
Bachelor of Science students are required to include a majors and a minor in their degree program, except in 'named' degrees.
PhB ProjectsSuggested topics for Advanced Studies Courses (ASCs) are available for PhB students. The list is not exhaustive and students are encouraged to come up with their own topics if they wish.
Fourth Year HonoursAny student considering Honours in Mathematics or Mathematical Applications and Computation should discuss this with the Fourth Year course coordinator early in the year. Intending Honours students should note that some courses may be regarded as essential prerequisites for Fourth Year studies (depending on the areas chosen for specialisation).
