    About

    • Develop your problem solving and analytical skills in modelling, optimisation, applied probability and differential equations.

    • Enjoy a diverse and flexible study program exploring the relationship and application of mathematics to areas such as physics, engineering, information technology and biology.

    • Graduate work-ready with sound knowledge in applied mathematics and strong multi-disciplinary skills.

    • Gain real-world experience with a major project or completion of the Maths Clinic program working closely with an industry partner.

    • Join an exceptional cohort of students learning from educators dedicated to training to next generation of mathematicians and data scientists.

    • Gain access to a diverse range of researchers in pure and applied mathematics working together to discover, understand, interpret and apply mathematics to important industrial and social problems.

    • Study at a university with research in the field of mathematical sciences, applied mathematics and statistics ranked well above world-class1.

    • Pursue a career in industry across a range of sectors or consider building your expertise with a research degree.
       

    1 2018 Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA).

    In first year you'll study core subjects in mathematics and IT. You will focus on building your mathematical and programming skills with courses that include calculus, statistical methods, algebra, and fundamentals of programming.

    You will study multi-disciplinary areas such as mathematical modelling, data collection and analysis, applied probability, and the implementation of computer-driven solutions. You can also choose to study a minor in Information Technology or take electives from other natural sciences.

    In your final year you'll combine study and hands-on experience with the chance to take part in the Maths Clinic program. In Maths Clinic a team of students, supported by academic supervisors, works on a problem in close consultation with an industry partner. This will strengthen your abilities in research, analysis, interpretation of data, and communication.
