Program structure

Program content

Graduates from the BSc Mathematics program will obtain these skills:

Students will acquire calculation and analytical thinking skills, understand and be able to apply mathematical theories to solve real-world problems.

Students are able to develop codes and employ existing software to solve mathematical problems.

Students can tailor their study by selecting elective coursers according to their interests. By the end of the program, students will have an in-depth knowledge of pure mathematics, applied mathematics, computational mathematics, operations research, statistics.

Students are able to conduct research in mathematical field and transfer the knowledge to others.

Subprograms

We offer both a Regular program and a Distinction program. The Regular program aims to prepare the students for future career prospects or higher education in many areas. The Distinction program is designed for exceptionally motivated students who wish to further their study or become a researcher in the field of mathematics.

Regular program structure

The credit structure for the Regular program is as follows:

Students need to complete at least 30 credits of general education courses in the following categories; languages, life skills, healthcare, global civilization, and multicultural education.

Students need to complete 91 credits of specific courses. Minimum credits for each of the following categories are required:

  • Core courses (27 credits) Core courses cover fundamental knowledge in science including theoretical and practical physics, chemistry, and biology.
  • Specific courses (43 credits) Specific courses cover fundamental knowledge in mathematics including seminars in Mathematics and senior projects.
  • Major elective courses (21 credits) Major elective courses consist of 5 topics focusing on different areas in mathematical field: theoretical mathematics, applied mathematics, computational mathematics, operations research, and statistics.

Students need to complete at least 6 credits of free elective courses which can be chosen from either general education courses or specific courses

Distinction program structure

The credit structure for the Distinction program is as follows:

Students need to complete at least 30 credits of general education courses in the following categories; languages, life skills, healthcare, global civilization, and multicultural education.

Students need to complete 92 credits of specific courses. Minimum credits for each of the following categories are required:

  • Core courses (27 credits) Core courses cover fundamental knowledge in science including theoretical and practical physics, chemistry, and biology.
  • Specific courses (48 credits) Specific courses cover fundamental knowledge in mathematics including research project, research skills in mathematics, and advanced seminar in mathematics.
  • Major elective courses (17 credits) Major elective courses consist of 5 topics focusing on different areas in mathematical field: theoretical mathematics, applied mathematics, computational mathematics, operations research, and statistics. Students in the Distinction program must also include 2 courses from the Graduate program (3 credits) or intensive courses from the Undergraduate program (4 credits) in their Major elective courses.

Students need to complete at least 6 credits of free elective courses which can be chosen from either general education courses or specific courses
