Mathematics
Mathematics underlies the pursuit of every scientific endeavour as it equips you with the necessary body of knowledge and competences. Most of the Mathematics study-units in the first two years of the degree are compulsory. In the third year, students are asked to choose a stream from four available options. The four options are Graph Theory and Combinatorics, Functional Analysis and Topology, Applied Mathematics, and Biomathematics.
Philosophy
The overall aim of the Department of Philosophy is to offer you a philosophical education that is on par with the highest international standards and that will allow you to transfer your analytical skills to the branch of mathematics that originated from philosophy. In addition, you will pursue a philosophical education that, through your skill-set and capacity to question, think and understand, will place you in an advantageous position in your future careers.
Mathematics
The Course shall consist of two parts, namely, Part One comprising the first three years and Part Two comprising the fourth year.
- Part One shall consist of study-units to which 180 credits are assigned and indicated in the programme of study and divided as follows:
- Part Two shall consist of study-units to which 60 credits are assigned divided as follows:
- 40 credits in one area of study, of which 18 credits are assigned to a dissertation, and
- 20 credits in the other area of study,
First Year: in addition to the compulsory and elective study-units outlined in the programme of studies of the chosen areas (not less than 26 credits in each of the two areas), students are required to register for optional study-units to bring their total for the year to 60 credits,
Second Year: 30 credits in each of the two areas of study,
Third Year: 30 credits in each of the two areas of study.
At the end of Part One, students who obtain 180 credits as specified in paragraph (1) but who either opt not to proceed with the Course leading to the Honours Degree, or having proceeded, do not successfully complete the Course, shall be eligible for the award of the degree of Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.).
provided that in the case of Mathematics, the dissertation may be substituted by one or more additional taught study-units.

Communication and Academic Skills Programme
The communication and academic skills programme complements students’ main course of study. It introduces them to writing and presenting as situated within academic contexts sensitive to specific disciplines and develops their competences for future careers.
