Mathematics
The Department of Mathematics offers opportunities for study leading to doctoral, master's, and bachelor's degrees. For information on the Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics, see Arts Mathematics. For information on advanced degrees, see graduate Mathematics.
Students should note that the first digit in the number of a course is intended to convey the level of mathematical maturity at which the course is conducted rather than the year in which it must be taken.
Co-operative Education
Detailed information is available from the Mathematics Department or Co-operative Education.
Major
The Department offers a large selection of courses in various areas of pure and applied mathematics and requiring various levels of mathematical sophistication. The student is advised to consult a Mathematics advisor during the second year or when considering a Major in Mathematics in order to design a coherent program of study suitable to the student's interests and abilities.

Recommendations
The Department makes the following recommendations:
- Mathematically able students are encouraged to take the honours stream MATH 120, 121, 223, 226, and 227.
- In second year, MATH 221 should be taken in Term 1. It is possible to take (with appropriate prerequisites) some of MATH 307, 308, 312, 317, 340, and MATH/STAT 302 (as well as MATH 300) in the second year.
- Students interested in pursuing statistics to some depth should take STAT 200 and MATH/STAT 302 in the second year. This will prepare them for more advanced statistics courses such as STAT 305, 306, 404, and 405.
- Major students should consider taking some of MATH 300, 320, 322.
- MATH 302 and MATH 307 are courses which are useful in many areas of mathematics.
- Students interested in operations research should take MATH 340, 441, 442, and 443. They are also advised to take MATH 303, STAT 305, and 306, and some advanced computer science courses.
- Students interested in teaching are advised to take MATH 308, 309, 312, 313, 414, 446.
- Students interested in becoming actuaries can make substantial progress toward this career goal while majoring in mathematics or statistics. These students should consult the actuarial advisors in the Mathematics and/or Statistics Departments for detailed advice on course selection and advice on taking the Society of Actuaries' exams.
- Students interested in the physical sciences should take MATH 317 which is important for MATH 300, 316.
- Students interested in economics should consider taking ECON 420 and 421, and should consult an advisor in the Vancouver School of Economics for other appropriate economics courses. A joint Major in Mathematics and Economics is available. See below.
- In selecting electives, students should consider pursuing an area of application of mathematics in some depth. They should also ensure that they fulfil all the graduation requirements of the Faculty of Science.

Dual Degree Program in Mathematics and Education
The Dual Degree program in Mathematics and Education offers qualified students the opportunity to earn a B.Sc. degree in Mathematics (Major) and a B.Ed. degree in Secondary Education, in five winter sessions with some academic requirements in Term 1 of the Summer sessions. After completing all the requirements, students are normally eligible for a British Columbia Professional Teaching Certificate. Admission to the Dual Degree program requires application in the fall of second year and successful completion of a teaching practicum at the end of second year. See the Dual Degree Program in Science and Education for more information on admission and continuation requirements.

Honours
Students planning to take a Bachelor of Science with Honours in Mathematics, or in Mathematics combined with another subject, should note the following:
- To be admitted into an Honours Mathematics specialization, a student must obtain at least 68% in MATH 121 or average at least 80% in 6 credits of 100-level MATH courses. Honours degree candidates are expected to maintain an overall 68% average, complete all courses attempted, and complete at least 30 credits in every winter session.
- The courses MATH 120, 121, 223, 226, and 227 provide a firmer foundation for advanced study than the alternatives shown in parentheses.
- Students are encouraged to choose electives that result in studying another subject to substantial depth.
- For students who plan to work in mathematics, study in French, German, or Russian is recommended.
