(1) A candidate shall undertake research, or a course of graduate
studies and research, normally chosen from one of the postgraduate programs
offered by the School of Mathematics and Applied Statistics.
(2) Entry to the Honours Master of Science will normally be from
an Honours bachelor degree in Mathematics at a standard of Class II, Division
2 or higher. Entry may also be approved for candidates with the qualification
of Master of Mathematics on the recommendation of the Head of the School
of Mathematics and Applied Statistics.
(3) The Honours Master of Science will normally occupy two sessions
of full-time study or four sessions of part-time study, and requires satisfactory
completion of 900 level subjects to the value of at least 48 credit points
chosen from one of the postgraduate programs offered by the School of
Mathematics and Applied Statistics including either:
(a) the subject MATH993 (48 credit points), or
(b) the subject MATH992 (36 credit points) and other 900 level
subjects to the value of at least 12 credit points approved by the Head
of School. In exceptional circumstances, and subject to approval of

(4) The registration of a candidate will be subject to termination
if that candidate fails subjects to the total value of 18 or more credit
points.
(5) Each candidate shall have a supervisor appointed on the recommendation
of the Head of the School of Mathematics and Applied Statistics.
