Math & Its Applications Program
The Math & Its Applications program trains students to apply mathematics to a broad range of areas, such as in biology, networks, finance and more. In addition to the regular program, students can also choose from two options with extra prescribed courses: Computer Science or Economics. Students share a common first year, and can then specialize further in upper years.
