Whether you plan to work in science, information technology, business analysis, or enter the public sector as a policy or data advisor - mathematical and statistical skills are in high demand.

Learn to develop a flexible outlook, a range of technical skills and a deep understanding of how mathematics and statistics are applied in a variety of contexts. You will gain a balanced understanding of both mathematics and statistics, while integrating applied analytical methods and computational skills. You will also have the opportunity to develop consulting and research skills relevant to both industry and community engagement.

Our flexible degree structure encourages you to broaden your skill-set by integrating another full major in your degree. This will give you a greater understanding of the way mathematics and statistics operate in the context of other disciplines.

This degree also offers you the opportunity to take the fourth year of study in the form of a research-intensive honours year, or to continue into a Master program.
