Pure Mathematics Specialisation
Mathematics is both an art and a science, and pure mathematics is its foundation. A specialisation in pure mathematics gives students the opportunity to study the basic concepts that underly all mathematical applications. In the first three semesters of your degree your program depends upon your studies and results at VCE level. In semesters 4 to 6 students do a common course. |
