Bachelor of Mathematical Sciences

Students take courses to the value of at least 72 units comprising a core mathematical sciences requirement together with a number of electives.
Students must complete at least 18 units of level III courses chosen from Applied Mathematics, Pure Mathematics or Statistics together with Communication Skills.
High achieving students may undertake an additional year of study leading to an Honours Degree of the Bachelor of Mathematical Sciences.
An honours qualification is highly valued by employers and is suitable preparation for students who wish to proceed to postgraduate studies.
The honours year includes a major project.
Academic Program Rules The Calendar is a comprehensive handbook of the University's academic program rules.
Bachelor of Mathematical Sciences Areas of Specialisation The Bachelor of Mathematical Sciences allows students to choose a specialisation in Applied Mathematics, Pure Mathematics or Statistics.
