Applied Mathematics (major)

Your major in applied mathematics will build on core pure mathematics subjects, expanding your skills and knowledge in the field. Subjects include financial mathematics, industrial mathematical modelling, optimisation and applications, and medical mathematics.

Applied mathematics is the basis for successful decision making and problem solving independent of sector or industry; it can provide new insights into nature, technology and business and create a pathway for innovative solutions. It underpins a wide range of scientific and commercial enterprises, providing extensive career options. Almost every industry depends at some point on handling and interpreting data, and on predicting and modelling outcomes.

Accreditation & professional recognition

The Bachelor of Mathematics degree is accredited by the Australian Mathematical Society.

Admissions information

A range of admission options are available for future students. The procedures governing admission are defined in UOW's Admissions Procedures, and the UOW College Admissions Policy.

For specific advice or to ask any questions regarding an application, please contact the UOW Future Students Team.

Applicants need to have achieved the required score in a qualification equivalent to the completion of 13 years of schooling in Australia.
In order to succeed in your chosen course, it is assumed you have completed relevant subjects in your senior high school studies or other relevant qualifications. This is particularly important for degrees which have a strong basis in Mathematics or Science.
