Introductory Notes

1. Courses with the following prefixes are offered by the Faculty of Mathematics: ACTSC (Actuarial Science), AM (Applied Mathematics), C&O (Combinatorics and Optimization), CS (Computer Science), MATH (non-departmental Faculty courses), MTHEL (Mathematics Elective), PMATH (Pure Mathematics), STAT (Statistics). The course descriptions appear in ascending order by course number within these groups. Unless otherwise indicated with the course description, and provided space is

available (see Section 6.3 on page _

13:38), these courses are normally open to students in any UW faculty, subject to stated prerequisite requirements (see Section 6.4 on page 13:38).

2. Anumber of mathematics courses are offered at three different levels for BMath degree credit to accommodate the wide variety of students interested in such courses. The most challenging level, Advanced, is intended for exceptionally gifted students in an Honours program. The second level, Honours, is intended for all Honours students not taking the Advanced courses. The third level, General, is intended for students registered in the threeyear General program. In some

Course Descriptions Management Sciences Mathematics

instances, there are also other versions of such courses designed for students in faculties-other than Mathematics.

Advanced courses may always be substituted in lieu of corresponding Honours courses to satisfy Honours BMath degree requirements. Neither the Advanced nor Honours courses listed in Tables If and iil, on pages 13:10 and 13:11, are open to students registered in the threeyear BMath General program. However, in cases where a student registers in the General program following registrations in an Honours program, any successfully completed Advanced or Honours courses may be substituted in lieu

of the corresponding General required courses to satisfy threeyear BMath General degree requirements.

Prerequisites involving these core courses will normally be given in terms of the lowest hierarchy level acceptable (e.g. ‘Prereq: MATH 230B' implies that MATH 240B is also acceptable but MATH 220B is not).
