Overview
The Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) in Mathematical Science is a new 4-year
honours degree programme that covers diverse aspects of Mathematics
and its applications, giving students a solid foundation in the
Mathematical Sciences. As students advance through the programme they
may choose a specialism: Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Theoretical
Physics, Financial Mathematics, Computer Science, or Statistics with Bioinformatics.
