What it isA BA in Mathematics at York means you study pure mathematics, applied mathematics, and statistics — the theory behind numbers, equations, and data analysis. You can choose to do the program with co-op, which means you alternate between semesters of coursework and paid work terms at employers who need mathematical problem-solving skills. This suits people who want flexibility in how they learn and who value real-world experience alongside classroom study.Data Science combines statistics, programming, and problem-solving to extract useful patterns and insights from large datasets. Unlike a pure computer science degree, this program emphasizes the mathematical and statistical foundation needed to analyze data rather than just building software. A co-op placement is built in, so you'll work in real data roles while studying. It suits people who enjoy both math and logic puzzles and want to solve practical business problems using data.A Bachelor of Science is a four-year degree where you study science subjects in depth. You choose a major like Computer Science, Environmental Studies, Mathematics, Physical Geography, or Psychology, and take courses across your field plus some complementary subjects. It suits students who want a broad science education and plan to work in research, industry, education, or graduate studies related to their major.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.
