Mathematics with Applications

Overview

This Structured Elective provides students with the fundamental mathematical concepts and techniques that form the basic language and tools of large parts of modern science.

Benefits

With the rise of high-powered computational tools and data science, scientific inquiry in the 21st century is increasingly based on, or supplemented by, mathematical models. Mathematical modelling and problem-solving skills are much sought after by employers. This Structured Elective will provide students with these skills and give them familiarity with many of the quantitative methods used in modern science.
