| • | MATH 1000.03/1010.03: These core calculus classes are the starting point for any degree program in the sciences. | ||
| • | MATH 1001.03/1002.03: This class is designed especially for B.A. students and others who wish to know about the historical and cultural aspects of mathematics. | ||
| • | MATH 1060.03: This course serves as an introduction, through examples drawn from a wide variety of disciplines, to the basic ideas of statistics. | ||
| • | MATH 1115.03: Linear algebra and calculus are arranged to meet the needs of commerce students, but of interest to anyone wishing a brief introduction to either of these topics. | ||
| • | Math 1215.03: This course emphasizes the application of calculus to the life sciences. | ||
| • | MATH 2112.03: Whereas calculus deals with continuous phenomena, this class deals with discrete objects, especially varieties of ways to count. | ||
| • | MATH 2030.03/2040.03: These courses serve as introductions to matrix theory, linear equations and linear algebra, topics of importance in many fields. | ||
Students in any Mathematics program are strongly urged to include CSCI 1100.03, 1101.03.
Note that many programs include MATH 2060.03/2080.03. These classes may also be taken as STAT 2060.03/2080.03 and can then count as electives.
In addition to the departmental requirements listed below, students must satisfy the requirements outlined in the Degree Requirements section, page 71 of this calendar.
| • | MATH 2001.03/2002.03 | ||
| • | MATH 2030.03/2135.03 and 2505.03 | ||
| • | Two other credits in mathematics at or above the 2000 level - not including classes listed below | ||
| • | MATH 3030X/Y.06 | ||
| • | MATH 3500X/Y.06 | ||
| • | MATH 4950.03/Honours Research Project | ||
| • | Two other credits at or above the 4000 level | ||
Students may choose programs with a concentration in Applied Mathematics or Pure Mathematics. Students wishing to include Computer Science should consider Combined Honours in Mathematics and Computer Science. Students wishing to include Statistics should consider Combined Honours in Mathematics and Statistics. All Honours programs must be approved by the Honours advisor.
Students interested in applied mathematics are advised to select a program that includes, in addition to the required classes above, classes from among the following:
| • | MATH 2300.03 | ||
| • | MATH 2120.03/MATH 3120.03 | ||
| • | MATH 3210.03 | ||
| • | MATH 3260.03 | ||
| • | MATH 3300.03 | ||
| • | MATH 3330.03 | ||
| • | MATH 3360.03 | ||
| • | MATH 3400.03 | ||
Students interested in pure mathematics are advised to select a program that includes, in addition to the required classes above, classes from among the following:
| • | MATH 2051.03 | ||
| • | MATH 3070.03 | ||
| • | MATH 3080.03 | ||
| • | MATH 2120.03/3120.03 | ||
| • | MATH 3045.03 | ||
Students interested in taking honours in mathematics and another subject as a combined program should consult the Mathematics Honours advisor. Combined programs in areas such as Mathematics and Statistics, Mathematics and Computer Science, Mathematics and Physics, Mathematics and Chemistry and Mathematics and Economics are common, but combined programs with Mathematics and any subject in the Faculty of Science, Faculty of Arts and Social Science, and Faculty of Computer Science can be arranged. These programs must satisfy University Regulations, but are designed to satisfy the interests and needs of the student.
Students contemplating a combined honours program in Mathematics and another subject should bear in mind that the work in either subject would probably be insufficient for admission to a regular graduate program. A qualifying year would usually be necessary.
