With a Bachelor of Science (Advanced Mathematics), you can channel your keen mathematics brain into a growing range of careers, such as finance and environmental modelling. Choose a major in advanced or pure mathematics or advanced statistics, at a university ranked #2 in Australia and in the global top 50 for mathematics (QS World University Rankings by Subject, 2025).Are you a high achiever with a keen mind wanting to specialise in mathematics If you’re interested in the increasing range of quantitative careers in areas such as finance and environmental modelling, this degree offers a strong foundation.This four-year degree combines advanced coursework with an honours-level research project. You’ll also choose a major to specialise in a particular subject area.Applied MathematicsUnderstand and predict real-world problems and improve their outcomes. Mathematical methods and models are employed to find solutions not only for technical and industrial problems, but also for social, biomedical and economic problems.Pure Mathematics,Study the foundation of all mathematics. This major is concerned with discovering the patterns and structures that underlie wide areas of mathematics. Although motivated more by a search for beauty and symmetry, this area of mathematics has led to major advances in many areas of science and technology.Advanced StatisticsExplore the methodology for drawing conclusions from data - estimating the present, predicting the future and making decisions in the face of uncertainty. Modern statistics is a rapidly evolving science where innovations in technology present exciting new opportunities for collection and analysis of huge and complex data sets.
