| What it is | Economics is the study of how people, businesses, and governments make decisions about money, resources, and trade. You'll learn theories and tools to analyze why markets work the way they do, from individual spending habits to national policies. This program suits people curious about how the world's financial systems operate and who like working with data and logic to solve real-world problems. | You study the mathematical and economic theory behind financial markets, investments, and economic systems. This combines rigorous mathematics with economics and finance, giving you tools to analyze real-world economic problems and financial instruments. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom and paid work terms with employers, building practical experience alongside theory. This program suits people who want depth in quantitative analysis and enjoy connecting abstract math to how money and economies actually work. | A joint honours program combining mathematics and economics means you study both subjects equally throughout four years, learning to use mathematical methods to solve economic problems and understand quantitative analysis. Unlike a major-minor combination, you complete a full degree's worth of courses in each field. This program offers a co-op option, letting you work in related jobs during your studies. It suits people drawn to both abstract mathematics and real-world applications in business, policy, or finance. | 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. |
