Students whose program requires them to take Mathematics courses in later years must take the standard first year coursesÌýMATH1131 Mathematics 1AÌý²¹²Ô»åÌýMATH1231 Mathematics 1B, or their higher equivalentsÌýMATH1141 Higher Mathematics 1AÌý²¹²Ô»åÌýMATH1241 Higher Mathematics 1B. The higher versions cover all of the material in MATH1131 and MATH1231, often at greater depth, and are intended for students who have obtained high marks in HSC Mathematics Extension 1 and Extension 2, or very high marks in Mathematics Extension 1 alone.

Students who do not intend studying Mathematics beyond Year 1 may instead take the coursesÌýMATH1031 Mathematics for Life SciencesÌý²¹²Ô»åÌýMATH1041 Statistics for Life and Social Sciences. However, students who select these courses should seriously considerÌýthe implications of their choice because only a limited number of further Mathematics courses will be available to them.Ìý

The single courseÌýMATH1011 Fundamentals of Mathematics BÌýis also available to students seeking an alternate prerequisite for MATH1131 in cases where they do not meet the normal HSC prerequisites. Students should note, however, that only one of MATH1011 and MATH1131 can be counted in their degree.

MATH1151 Mathematics for Actuarial Studies and Finance 1AÌý²¹²Ô»åÌýMATH1251 Mathematics for Actuarial Studies and Finance 1BÌýare similar to MATH1141 and MATH1241, but are designed for Actuarial Studies students, for students in the BCom/BSc who are taking majors in Finance and Mathematics and for the Mathematics and Finance Plan in Advanced Science.

The courseÌýMATH1081 Discrete MathematicsÌýis an additional Level I course which is highly recommended for all students who intend to major in Mathematics. It may be taken in Stage 1 or Stage 2, depending on the mathematical background of the student.

In second year, we offer you the opportunity to expand your knowledge and skill in the 'core' areas of mathematics and statistics and, at the same time, to begin to specialise towardsÌýApplied Mathematics,ÌýPure Mathematics, orÌýStatistics.

Some of the courses you take are determined by your choice of Majors/Minors (in the Science degree program 3970 or combined degree programs) or a study plan (in Advanced Science). Other courses are 'free electives' which you can choose for yourself.

The information given here is to help you choose your electives, starting with a list of courses together with links to a fuller description of each course. Many of the courses are available at Higher level as well as Ordinary, so we offer advice on whether to take Higher courses. Finally, there is a guide to the differences between Applied, Pure and Statistics and how this may affect your choice of courses.

What do we offer?

Course List for Mathematics and Statistics Majors etc.

The following is a list of the courses we offer Mathematics and Statistics majors at second year. Each item in the list is linked to a course description which tells you what the course is about and why it is worth studying. The last digit of the course number tells you how many units of credit it is worth: last digit 0 means 3 units of credit and last digit 1 means 6 units of credit.ÌýÌý

NOTE:ÌýMATH2260 is not taught every year.

The following is a list of courses we offer Mathematics and Statistics majors at third year.

Not all Level III courses in Mathematics and Statistics are offered every year. If a course is not being offered in a particular year, the course entry below willÌýindicate that.Ìý

Students proceeding to Year 4 (Honours) in some area of Mathematics or Statistics should consult with the relevant Honours Directors (see the information aboutÌýHonours) before making a final choice of Level III courses.Ìý
