Bachelor of Science (Advanced Mathematics) (Honours)

The honours year in science is a widely recognised and highly regarded additional year of undergraduate study available to you after you complete your undergraduate course.

It's a unique opportunity for you to explore your research potential and put the theory from your undergraduate studies into practice.

An honours qualification in mathematics is not only well regarded in academia, but also in industry where a command of scientific thought processes are highly sought after.Honours can be undertaken in any area of science, and involves designing a research program in your chosen area of interest in consultation with one or more supervisors.

Your research program may include components in more than one area of science (eg.

mathematics and biology) and depending on the nature of your project you may also have to undertake some courses in experimental design or complete technical training to use a particular piece of equipment.Further information about honours in the Faculty of Science.The Faculty of Science has an outstanding reputation for the quality of its postgraduate research programs across a wide range of science disciplines.

With significant levels of funding from various research councils and bodies, and the provision of major research facilities, the faculty is committed to providing leading education and research training to its students.

There are a range of research programs available, depending on which stage you are at in your academic career.

Whether at the doctoral or masters level, you undertake self-directed, supervised research in your specialised area of science, and produce a thesis considered to be a substantially original contribution to the subject concerned.

The honours year in science provides a research training pathway to our higher research degrees, the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and Master of Science (MSc).

The postgraduate research programs offered by the faculty attract a large number of domestic and international students each year.More information about science research programs at Sydney .
