Applied Mathematics program requirements

What the Applied Mathematics Specialist requires, as the 2026-2027 Arts & Science Calendar states it, and every course it names.

Applied Mathematics Specialist

  • Science program
  • 13.0-13.5 credits
  • Open enrolment
  • ASSPE2053

Enrolment

This is an open enrolment program. A student who has completed 4.0 credits may enrol in the program. The full enrolment requirements are on the Calendar's page for this program.

Notes:

Note 1Not all courses listed have priority enrolment for students enrolled in this program. Students are responsible for checking priority of courses and meeting course prerequisites for courses they wish to take.

Note 2Each course can count toward only one requirement, even if listed as options to multiple requisites of the program.

Note 3CSC108H1 is waived for students who complete CSC148H1 first. If a student has not taken a year-long course in programming in secondary school, it is strongly recommended that students take CSC108H1 first.

Note 4Students may use CR/NCR on the course they use toward the ethics and social responsibility credit.

Note 5Students may be permitted to take Math graduate courses. A 0.5 credit of these courses may count toward specialist program requirements, where relevant (e.g., as courses “at the 400-level”). To review eligibility criteria and apply for graduate courses as an undergraduate student, find more information on the A&S Math website.

Note 6Students may be permitted to take an independent reading course. A 0.5 credit of these courses may count towards program requirements, where relevant (e.g., as courses “at the 400-level”). To review eligibility criteria and apply for independent reading courses as an undergraduate student, find more information on the A&S Math website.

Courses accepted towards this program’s ethics requirement: CSC300H1/ CSE240H1/ CSE270H1/ EEB215H1/ ENV200H1/ ESS205H1/ any ETH200+/ FOR201H1/ HIS268H1/ HPS200H1/ HPS202H1/ INS200H1/ JPH441H1/ PHL265H1/ PHL271H1/ PHL273H1/ PHL275H1/ PHL281H1/ PHL295H1/ SDS256H1/ another suitable course with permission from the Associate Chair, Undergraduate
