C11210v1 Graduate Certificate in Mathematics

Overview

The Graduate Certificate in Mathematics is a four-subject course comprising undergraduate and/or honours-level subjects. The flexible course structure allows study programs designed to suit different categories of university graduates; from mathematicians who need to refresh or deepen their knowledge in a certain mathematical discipline, to holders of business, engineering or science bachelor degrees who need a mathematical foundation for further studies.

Course aims

The course aims to provide university graduates with access to training and retraining in mathematics and statistics with the aim to allow students to focus on particular mathematical topics rather than on broader areas of mathematics.

Admission requirements

Applicants should have a bachelor's degree from UTS or other recognised institution. If a chosen subject has prerequisites, these prerequisites either should be included in the program or should be completed prior to enrolment.

Recognition of prior learning

No exemptions are granted as recognition of prior learning.

Course duration and attendance

An applicant may enrol in this course either on a full-time or part-time basis. As a guide, minimum full-time attendance is one semester of study, and part-time attendance is one year of study. The possibility of full-time study and duration of the course depend on the subjects chosen and their availability. Applicants should be aware that subjects may require attendance at daytime classes.
