Course Titles

The School's Honours programs contain a broad spectrum of topics in Pure and Applied Mathematics and Statistics. Below is a provisional list of Honours courses and lecturers for 2009. There will be some additional courses taught in conjuction with the University of Sydney; details will be provided soon.

We remind students that they are not restricted to the courses from their `home department'. As well as courses from the other two departments, you may be able to take certain third year mathematics options, courses at the AMSI-ICE-EM Summer School, or suitable courses from elsewhere in the University. Please consult with your Honours coordinator before you finalize the list of courses that you will attempt.

Courses marked with (*) have special restrictions on their enrolment and may not be permitted in all programs.

You should note that Honours students do not complete University enrolments in the courses below. As far as the University is concerned, you are only enrolled in MATH4XXX. It is therefore usually straightforward to do things like attending extra courses before settling on a final selection. If you do intend to stop participating in a course that you have been attending, please let the lecturer know so that they can make a sensible report at the end of the semester. Note that courses run in other parts of the University may have more stringent rules - don't assume that you can necessarily make a late withdrawal from a course in another discipline.
