Courses
We run a large number of courses that can be taken individually or packaged into streams, majors, minors or specialisations.
Our full list of courses is below, and there are also packages of courses available for students with particular interests or needs:
Planning a course program can be challenging. It is important that students enroll in the courses most appropriate to their overall goals and abilities, as well as completing their required mathematics prerequisites.
It is strongly recommended that students contact us for advice when planning their course program.

Honours
Honours courses are available to 2nd and 3rd year undergraduate students. Please view the list of courses under the Honours tab and check the course page for requisite information or contact the course convener to discuss enrolment options.
Special Topics
Topics classes vary each semester. There will be a meeting to announce the semester's special topics held at 10:00am on the first Monday of the semester.
This meeting will take place in person on Monday, July 22nd, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. in Seminar Room 1.33 of Hanna Neumann Building 145.
