| What it is | A four-year honours degree in pure and applied mathematics, with a focus on both theoretical problem-solving and statistical analysis. Unlike a general math degree, this program runs deeper into advanced theory and proof-based courses. It suits students who enjoy abstract thinking and want to build strong mathematical foundations for graduate study, research, or technical roles in finance, engineering, or data science. | A program where you study pure mathematics and applied statistics together, building strong foundations in both subjects before specializing. The co-op requirement means you alternate between classroom terms and paid work terms at employers who use these skills. It suits students who enjoy both abstract problem-solving and real-world data analysis, and who want work experience alongside their degree. | You study the mathematics and computer science behind solving real-world problems with data and algorithms. This program combines pure mathematics, statistics, and information systems rather than focusing on just coding or theoretical math alone. A mandatory co-op component means you'll work in industry during your degree, giving you practical experience alongside classroom learning. It suits people who enjoy both math and problem-solving and want to see how their skills apply in actual jobs. |
