Program overview

A four year mathematics degree taken within an arts structure, covering calculus, linear algebra, discrete mathematics, statistics and analysis, with breadth in humanities and social science subjects alongside the mathematical core.

The combination suits students who want mathematical capability with a broader academic footprint, and it pairs particularly well with economics, education or policy directions where numerate graduates are scarce and immediately visible.

  • Operations Analyst: logistics and planning roles
  • Statistical Assistant: research and survey organisations
