The dual four-year program allows students to combine the versatility and breadth of an arts degree, with the in-depth knowledge of a mathematics degree. In the Arts component, students choose from an extensive list of majors and can undertake a range of electives. For example students may choose to pursue language studies, in order to work internationally in their field. In the Mathematics component you will choose to develop a comprehensive specialised knowledge in one field of mathematics or a high level of sophistication in the applications of mathematics. Modern computation, advances in scientific technology and the increasing production of data have all increased the scope for applications of mathematics well beyond the traditional areas of engineering and the physical sciences, to include fields such as finance, economics, information technology and molecular biology. There is increasing recognition that graduates with high-level quantitative and analytic skills will play a key role at the forefront of new developments in these and other fields.
