About the course

You will develop comprehensive specialised knowledge in your chosen field of mathematics, or a high level of sophistication in the applications of mathematics generally. You can then apply your knowledge to sectors of the economy including finance, economics, information technology and molecular biology. You'll gain quantitative and analytical skills, along with a foundation of calculus, linear algebra, discrete mathematics, mathematical analysis and modelling. You will also develop a deep knowledge of mathematical topics and a high level of sophistication in the application of mathematics across a variety of fields and industries. As a graduate, you'll further benefit from our mathematics research and industry networks, which will widen your career options and help you excel in the mathematical aspects of other disciplines. The Bachelor of Mathematics caters to high-achieving students seeking to develop a comprehensive specialised knowledge in a field of mathematics or a high level of sophistication in the applications of mathematics. Mathematics is one of the most enduring fields of study and has consistently been proven as essential in an expanding number of disciplines and professions. Modern computation, advances in scientific technology and the increasing production of data have all increased the scope for applications of mathematics well beyond the traditional areas of engineering and the physical sciences, to include fields such as finance, economics, information technology and molecular biology. There is increasing recognition that graduates with high-level quantitative and analytic skills will play a key role at the forefront of new developments in these and other fields.

　　The applied mathematics major focuses on the derivation and evaluation of models in the physical, biological and engineering sciences. Advanced techniques for solving differential equations using advanced mathematics are studied in the second and third year of the major. Computation plays an increasingly large role in the solution of problems in applied mathematics, and the algorithms and ideas which allow their efficient solution form an important part of the field. Courses in the major provide students with the skills to implement and develop these methods. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
