Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Mathematical Science

This honours degree programme provides students with a solid foundation in Mathematical Science, encompassing all aspects of mathematics and its applications. Students will have the opportunity to specialise in particular areas, for example in pure mathematics, applied mathematics, financial mathematics, computer science, statistics or bioinformatics. The BSc in Mathematical Science offers a highly flexible programme, allowing students to tailor their studies according to their interests. They may choose to focus on pure mathematics, applied mathematics, statistics, or combine elements from all three areas. Students also have the opportunity to take modules in bioinformatics, physics, chemistry, and biology, especially in the early years of the programme. One of the programme’s key strengths is its flexibility. In the first two years, students gain a broad foundation in the mathematical sciences, enabling them to make well-informed choices about their areas of specialisation in the third and fourth years. In year three, students have the option of applying to study abroad for one semester. In their fourth year, students complete a project under the guidance of a faculty member, through which they can develop research and mathematical writing skills, and presentation experience.
