What it isYou study pure and applied mathematics: algebra, calculus, geometry, logic, and problem-solving with numbers and abstract structures. The BA leans toward theory and breadth across disciplines; the BSc goes deeper into mathematics itself and how it connects to physics and science. The co-op option lets you work terms in industry, education, or research alongside your classes, which suits people who want real-world experience or need to test whether they prefer theory or applied work.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.This program lets you study mathematics while choosing how to apply it — through business, economics, statistics, artificial intelligence, or education. Unlike a pure mathematics degree, you're expected to connect mathematical theory to real-world problems in fields like finance, operations, or data analysis. It suits students who enjoy math but want flexibility to explore where it leads them, rather than committing to one specialty upfront.
