The General Mathematics Program provides this kind of structure. The emphasis of the Program is on the breadth of mathematical knowledge. For employment in some industries and the technological sector, it is advantageous to also have computer expertise or literacy in some other field of science or engineering. One of the main strengths of the General Mathematics Program is its flexibility in connecting to other disciplines. Students of the General Mathematics Program are strongly recommended to take a minor degree in another subject in conjunction with the Program.
Examples are computer science, economics, physics, biology, psychology, to name a few.
Students can also work on a major in another field alongside General Mathematics. This usually means fulfulling both sets of requirements for the programs. Careful planning is required. The Faculty of Science also has a five-year Joint B.Sc.
