What you studyMathematicsMathematicsStatisticsMathematicsStatisticsMathematicsStatistics
What it isYou study pure and applied mathematics — both the theoretical foundations and how to use them in real-world problems like engineering, finance, or science. Unlike a straight math degree, this program lets you take paid work terms at companies or organizations, so you apply what you're learning while earning and building experience. It suits students who want mathematical depth but also want to test out careers and see where math is actually used.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.You study mathematics and statistics with a focus on understanding how to teach these subjects effectively in schools. This program is designed specifically for future math teachers, so it integrates pedagogical training alongside your math and statistics courses, unlike a straight mathematics degree. It suits students who enjoy math and want to help others learn it, with the option to do paid work placements through co-op to gain classroom experience.Statistique is a four-year degree in mathematics and statistics, where you learn to collect, analyze, and interpret data using mathematical methods. Unlike a pure math program, you focus heavily on real-world applications of statistics in fields like business, science, and public health. The co-op option lets you alternate between study terms and paid work placements, which suits students who want practical experience alongside theory.
