The BSc Honours (Research Orientation) degree programme in Mathematics intends to provide a deep and broad understanding of mathematics itself by focusing on understanding structures, patterns and conceptual relationships that lie in the core of mathematics. The core of the Mathematics honours degree programme consists of Algebra, Analysis and Topology/ Geometry which are traditionally considered as three main areas of Pure Mathematics. Mathematics is a challenging intellectual pursuit which provides an enormous excitement and satisfaction. The ideas develop in pure mathematics underpin patterns and structures that appear in modern science and technology and hence it plays a vital role in the development of science and technology.
