What it is	Financial Mathematics and Economics is a mathematics-based degree that combines the study of economic systems and financial markets with advanced math and statistics. Unlike a pure economics or pure mathematics program, it trains you to use mathematical models and analysis to solve real-world problems in finance and economics. It suits students who want rigorous quantitative training and are interested in how money, markets, and economies actually work.	You study how Earth's materials, structures, and processes work by combining geology with physics — essentially learning the physics that explains what geologists observe in rocks, earthquakes, and planetary systems. This program differs from studying geology or physics alone because you'll apply physical principles directly to Earth science problems rather than studying them separately. It suits you if you're curious about how the planet works at a fundamental level and want flexibility to pursue either Earth science or physics-based careers.	A three-year mathematics degree where you study pure and applied mathematics without the depth required for honours. You choose electives from computer science, physics, statistics, and economics to build a program suited to your interests rather than following a fixed honours sequence. This suits students who want solid mathematical training for careers in business, teaching, or technical fields without committing to graduate-level mathematics study.
