This major is focused on the intrinsic nature and fundamental properties of mathematics, and recognises its ubiquity, universality and beauty.

You'll develop high-level skills in critical, analytical and abstract thinking, and study frameworks for deeper understanding of other areas of mathematics, such as applied mathematics, mathematical physics and statistics.

You'll also have the opportunity to acquire a solid grounding in the key areas of pure mathematics, as well as opportunities to undertake focused study in advanced courses.

You may choose to combine your major with a minor in bioinformatics, computational science, computer science, physics or statistics.

Our programs prepare you for your first job and beyond. Depending on which major you choose, here are some of the careers you could be on your way to:

• Data engineer
• Production bioinformatics engineer
• Software engineer
• Research engineering lead
• Quantitative analyst
• Materials scientist
• Data analyst
• Customer analyst
