Aim

This program aims to produce graduates who are skilled in the areas of modern applied Mathematical Science, namely applied mathematics, statistics and optimisation. These graduates will be well equipped for work in business or industry or to continue with postgraduate studies.

Content & Structure

Students are required to complete 108 units of study.

This three year program provides a comprehensive grounding in modern applied mathematics, statistics and optimisation theory and practice. The first two years provide breadth in the three areas and some depth is provided in third year.
