Bachelor of Mathematics (Honours) majoring in Applied Mathematics
Adelaide University
Type of institution: University/Higher Education Institution
Level: Undergraduate
CRICOS: 04249J
Discover how to harness mathematical theories and techniques to solve real-world challenges in our Bachelor of Mathematics (Honours). This degree provides you with the same breadth and depth of learning as the foundation bachelor degree, but with the additional opportunity to advance directly into a research-focused honours year. You'll discover the theories, principles and technical skills essential to mathematical sciences. Build deep knowledge of the abstract theories used in statistical modelling and learn fundamental concepts in algebra, calculus and data taming. Gain skills in scientific programming and coding. Develop problem-solving and analytical skills in modelling, optimisation, applied probability and differential equations. The Applied Mathematics major allows you to explore the relationship and application of mathematics to areas like information technology, physics, engineering, biology, public health and more. You'll be prepared for an exciting, dynamic career in a wide range of industries where mathematical expertise is highly sought after. Deeply practical, there's multiple opportunities throughout your studies to sharpen your technical and professional skills. Develop maths-driven solutions for real business problems in our Maths Clinic, undertake a capstone industry project or industry placement. Complete a major honours research project on a topic of your choosing and contribute new knowledge to the field. This experience not only provides you with a competitive edge with employers but also lays the foundation for a future research pathway.
