Bachelor of Mathematics (Honours)

A Bachelor of Mathematics (Honours) degree considerably widens career opportunities and serves as an initial preparation for employment as a professional mathematician or statistician. It also satisfies the entry requirement for higher research studies such as a Master of Philosophy or a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD). The Bachelor of Mathematics (Honours) teaches highly transferable skills in problem-solving, data analysis, probability and variability, mathematical modelling, logistics and logic. You will complete coursework and a substantial thesis in mathematics or statistics in an area of interest under the close supervision of one or more members of staff in the discipline. There are opportunities for scholarships from corporate partners, plus summer scholarships and undergraduate research projects with academic staff, and access to programs offered by the Australian Mathematical Sciences Institute (AMSI) ACE Network.
