Offerings for the very best students
The School of Mathematics and Statistics has a special program
which caters for highly talented students:
- Students in the Science Faculty Talented Student Program;
- Students in the B.Sc. (Advanced Mathematics) degree;
- Students with excellent results in HSC Mathematics (or equivalent).
First Year students in these groups who demonstrate a
serious interest in mathematics will be invited to enrol in a
Mathematics Special Studies Program. In addition to covering
standard material, students in this program participate in their
own seminars on specially chosen advanced topics. The Special
Studies Program is also open to students in Arts and Liberal Studies
degrees as well as Science.
Some more information can be found on the TSP Information Sheet (PDF).
The Mathematics Special Studies Program consists of the
units of study MATH1906 (in Semester 1)
and MATH1907 (in Semester 2).
Some information about these units is contained in the
Science Faculty handbook.
More detailed information is contained in the
School of Mathematics First Year handbook, which is available from the
Mathematics First Year Office (Carslaw Building Room 520) before the
start of Semester 1 or from the Web in
PDF format.
Students in the
Science Faculty Talented Student Program
also have access to higher-year courses ahead of time and participate in
special projects.
