Major Code: 7076 Degree Awarded: Bachelor of Science
Delivery Mode(s): Classroom Admission Status: Undergraduate
Location(s): Main Campus - Melbourne

The bachelor’s program in mathematics is a highly interdisciplinary program designed primarily for dual majors. During the first two years, mathematical sciences majors share courses with science and engineering majors. Students choose electives that will enable them to apply mathematics to engineering, the physical sciences, biological sciences, environmental studies, social sciences and business applications. The program provides students with the knowledge and skills necessary for the STEM workforce in industry and academia.
