The Mathematical Sciences discipline offers innovative undergraduate and postgraduate courses with a multi–disciplinary approach to the study of statistical and computational methods, mathematical modelling, and operations research. Major studies are in the areas of:
- Applied Mathematics
- Computational Mathematics
- Core Mathematics
- Discrete Mathematics
- Financial Mathematics
- Operations Research
- Statistics
All courses offer a combination of face–to–face tutorials and computer lab work which gives students a competitive edge when entering the workforce and places them in an excellent position to move into research. Much of the discipline´s research is coordinated by the Institute Health Biomedical Innovation, Institute of Sustainable Resources and the Information Security Institute – information on current Honours and Higher Degree Research projects is available through the faculty´s Mathematical Sciences Research homepage.
