Department of Mathematics & Statistics, College of Engineering and Physical Sciences

Knowledge of mathematics is crucial for understanding our world. The Minor in Mathematics is designed to provide considerable flexibility for students to pursue their own mathematical interests, whether they be in the concepts of "pure" mathematics or techniques and applications. Students minoring in Mathematics will develop skills that are valued in many sectors such as business, education, government, and industry.

Minor Requirements (Honours)

This minor cannot be combined with a major or minor in Mathematical Science.

A total of 5.00 credits is required to complete the Minor including:
