Master of Science (Mathematics)

About

The Master of Science (Mathematics) is designed for students with a mathematics or statistics degree or with a degree containing a substantial amount of mathematics, such as a mathematics major in a science or engineering degree.

The course builds on your existing mathematical, statistical, research and professional skills. The degree provides you with further knowledge of mathematics and statistics, and also the social, economic, cultural and environmental impacts of this area in the global community, plus the professional and ethical responsibilities that go along with this understanding.

The coursework has been designed to address topical concerns in industry and society, preparing you for further enrolment in a research degree or employment in one of the many fields actively seeking mathematicians and statisticians.

The Master of Science (Mathematics) consists of two years of full-time study. Students entering with a bachelor degree in the same discipline will be eligible to apply to follow a 54-unit pathway. The course has flexibility to allow you to choose topics that both complement and extend your undergraduate studies. It offers studies in all areas of the mathematical sciences, with an emphasis on modern applied mathematics. You can select studies in areas such as algebra, methods of applied mathematics, complex analysis, partial differential equations, statistical science, stochastic processes and standards, ethics and compliance. The masters project is normally taken in the final two semesters and helps you develop research, communication and technical skills. An in-depth investigation of a particular area is completed under the guidance of a supervisor.
