This programme is suitable for those students who want to undertake graduate study in applied mathematics , pure mathematics , or statistics . To be admitted, students normally must hold an honours degree in mathematics or statistics.
Students can take courses in a wide variety of fields.
Courses in such areas as algebra, analysis, topology, differential equations, numerical methods, foundations of mathematics, probability, operations research, mathematical and applied statistics are offered regularly. The programme provides solid preparation for admission to a Ph.D. programme at York or other North American universities. It is also a suitable programme for students who wish to expand their knowledge of mathematics or statistics beyond what they learned at the undergraduate level but who do not want to continue beyond the Master's level. This programme is designed to upgrade the breadth of knowledge of high school mathematics teachers, thus making them more effective in their classrooms. As such it is more course-intensive than our Regular Programme.
