| What it is | You study how to extract useful patterns and insights from large datasets by combining computer science and mathematics. Unlike a standalone computer science or math degree, you learn to write code, build algorithms, and apply statistical and mathematical theory specifically to solve data problems. This program suits you if you want technical depth in multiple areas and are willing to do paid work terms alongside your classes over five years. | You study how to use data and statistical tools to solve problems in finance and banking. The program combines computer science, mathematics, and finance, so you learn to build models and analyze trends rather than just learning finance theory or coding separately. It includes paid work terms with employers, giving you real experience before you graduate. This suits people who want a technical, analytical career in financial institutions or companies that rely on data to make decisions. | An Honours Mathematics degree means you study pure and applied mathematics at depth over four years, with required courses in calculus, algebra, analysis, and proof-based theory. Unlike a general math program, this honours stream demands rigorous mathematical reasoning and includes optional specializations through electives in computer science, physics, statistics, or economics. It suits students who enjoy abstract problem-solving and want a foundation for graduate studies or technical careers. |
