Mathematics & Statistics Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Arts

About

The Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics builds your understanding of mathematical concepts and enables you to enter innovative industries and solve satisfying challenges.

Mathematics major

Choose between a Bachelor of Science or a Bachelor of Arts to customize your degree to your career goals.

Grow your command of calculus, discrete mathematics, algebra, and other advanced topics as you build a comprehensive understanding of math. In addition to your mathematics course work, you develop a breadth of intellectual and academic experience through studies in other disciplines.

In your first and second year, you build a solid understanding of foundational mathematical principles. As you advance, you grow your knowledge through advanced coursework in topics such as vector calculus, complex variables, applied algebraic systems, and more.

Near the end of your degree, you explore mathematical topics suited to your interests and focus your analytical savvy through flexible upper-level math/stats credits. View full requirements.

Mathematics extended minor/minor

Combine a Mathematics minor or extended minor with a major or minor/extended minor in another program, such as Chemistry or Physics, to package a degree to your interests. View full requirements (minor requirements for BSc, BA and BGS, BCIS)(extended minor requirements).

Mathematics Honours

Earn an honours degree through a combination of academic excellence and completing an additional 15 mathematics credits beyond the program requirements.

Additional opportunities

Study abroad in one of 20+ countries and earn UFV credits at a partner. Students who take advantage of the Study Abroad program gain a global network of connections, build cultural knowledge, and are better equipped for the global job market.

Build credibility and on-the-job skills by opting for the Co-operative Education option. Combine study semesters with four- eight, or twelve-month paid work terms, offered in regional, national, and global firms. Positions are available in all major/minor specialization areas and in varied industries. These opportunities provide you with valuable experience and boost your career prospects.

Better understand published works, explore an area of interest, and get a head-start on your career as a researcher by taking advantage of undergraduate research opportunities.

Requirements

Entry Requirements

B.C. high school graduation or equivalent;
Or completion of a minimum of nine UFV or transferable post-secondary credits with a minimum 2.00 GPA (C average) based on all credits attempted;
Or a minimum of 19 years of age by the start of the first class;
Or, for admission into preparatory level programs only, a minimum of 17 years of age and out of high school for at least one year by the start of the semester.

Career

A twenty-year study conducted by Statistics Canada reveals that people who study mathematics earn as much as graduates in business administration or health sciences, and are not far behind the highest earning graduates in engineering sciences.

Having a math component to your degree signals to prospective employers that you have the ability to think analytically, abstractly, and logically, with depth and clarity. These attractive qualities can open the door to a satisfying career in a variety of sectors including:

Education
Actuarial science
Computer science
Business
Engineering
High technology
Cryptography
Finance

Many employers do not have the in-house mathematical or statistical expertise to develop their enterprise. In consequence, math skills are highly prized in a variety of sectors, such as manufacturing, mining and oil, public administration, and professional, scientific, and technical services.

How to Apply

How to apply

Note: Prospective International students follow different steps than those listed below.
Find out how to apply to UFV International.

Choose your program

Select a program from UFV's program list: UFV offers 17 bachelor's degrees, two master's degrees, and more than 100 certificate, diploma, and post-degree programs. If you study fulltime, a bachelor’s degree usually takes four years, a diploma two and a certificate one. Many of the courses you take in one or two-year programs will count toward a higher credential, allowing you to keep your options open by earning a one-year certificate or a two-year diploma on the way to completing a full degree.

To find out when you can apply, check the list of programs currently accepting applications.

If you aren’t sure which program to apply to, contact Student Recruitment or book a one-on-one appointment with an Academic Advisor.

Check the requirements

There are three types of requirements that you need to meet to qualify for admission at UFV: general requirements, English requirements and program requirements. Information about our general and English requirements can be found in the UFV Academic Calendar. You will also be able to look up your program in the Program Index to see program-specific entrance requirements.

Check the UFV Academic Calendar and find your program. In the How to apply section, you will find a list of all required documents.

Depending on the program to which you wish to apply, you may need to provide high school or university transcripts, prepare a portfolio, or take a placement test.

In addition to filling out an online application, some programs may also require that you fill additional forms, such as sealed reference forms, personal statements, or volunteer history.

Note: You are required to declare all previously attended post-secondary institutions, and provide official post-secondary transcripts. Students who have taken course prerequisites at other institutions will also need to submit official post-secondary transcripts for evaluation. Order your transcripts early so they can arrive before you apply. View official transcript guidelines.
