The Department of Applied Mathematics offers a variety of plans that lead to the BMath Honours degree, as follows:
- Applied Mathematics
- Applied Mathematics with specializations
- Applied Mathematics with Engineering specializations
- Mathematical Physics
- Applied Mathematics with Scientific Computing
Advisory Notes:
It is essential that you refer to the Undergraduate Calendar for the complete requirements for each plan.
Consult the projected course offerings for the next five years and speak with your academic advisor to help you plan your course schedule.
PHYS 121 is not required for Applied Mathematics with Scientific Computing.
Co-op Program:
The sequence below is strongly recommended for the Applied Math, Applied Math with Scientific Computing, and Mathematical Physics plans. It does not coincide with any of the standard Math Faculty co-op sequences. To follow this sequence you will need to complete a change of sequence form, available from the Math Undergraduate Office. This is not the only co-op sequence through which the plan can be completed, but other sequences may restrict course choices, especially in later years. The Math Faculty website provides additional information about sequence restrictions and how to change your sequence.

Combination Plans:
A major in Applied Mathematics may also be combined with a major in another department in a joint or double plan. Note the difference between a "double plan" and a "joint plan":
- For a "double plan" you must satisfy all the requirements of both departments
- For a "joint plan" the requirements of each department are somewhat reduced
Two popular combination plans are:
- Joint Applied Mathematics/Computer Science
- Double Applied Mathematics/Pure Mathematics
All academic programs require a certain number of courses within the Math faculty but outside of the Applied Mathematics program. In consultation with the other departments we have put together information on sensible "math elective" courses available to our students.
Applied Mathematics Minor:
An Applied Math Minor can be combined with most other majors in the Faculty of Mathematics.
A Pure Math Minor is easily attainable from the Mathematical Physics program.
