Mathematical Biology, BSc

Solutions for 21st-century challenges involve complex systems that no single discipline can fully address. The Mathematical Biology program provides students with an interdisciplinary education in mathematics, computer science, biology, chemistry and health. The program combines educational experiences in these disciplines with plenty of opportunities to develop skills in problem solving, computer programming, mentoring and leadership, communication, and practical and theoretical research. Students will experience the intersection of mathematics and the life sciences first-hand with a final year research project. Ultimately, students will graduate with the tools and knowledge needed to help solve problems of modern life. Career paths include: biomathematician, disease-prevention specialist, pharmaceutical researcher, conservationist.
