Effective Fall 2014, Mathematics 265, 267, 367, Mathematics 275, 277, 375 and 377 replaced respectively Mathematics 251, 253, 353, Applied Mathematics 217, 219, 307 and 309 and serves as prerequisites for appropriate courses. In some special cases, Mathematics 267 will replace Mathematics 349 or 353. For these and other deviations from the general rule, see individual course entries for details. Mathematics 267 supplemented by Mathematics 177 will be accepted as equivalent to Mathematics 277.
Students are expected to enrol in honours courses upon their decision to become honours majors. In addition to the requirements specified by the Faculty of Science (see Section 3), students are required to complete the following program of study:
3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Mathematics 273
9 units (1.5 full-course equivalents) - Mathematics 249 or 265, 267, 367
12 units (2.0 full-course equivalents) - Mathematics 211 or 213, Mathematics 311 or 313, Mathematics 321 or Statistics 321, Statistics 323
3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Computer Science 217 or 231 or 235
9 units (1.5 full-course equivalents) - Statistics 421, 429 and 517
24 units (4.0 full-course equivalents) - Selected from any courses labelled Statistics at the 400 level or above
3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Mathematics 335 or 355 or Pure Mathematics 435 or 455
3 units (0.5 full-course equivalent) - Mathematics 445 or 447 or 545 or 421 or 423 or Pure Mathematics 445 or 545 or 421 or 521
18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents) - Breadth requirement: Options from Faculties other than the Faculty of Science (check Table I in 3.4 Program Requirements for ineligible courses). Of these 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents), at least 6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) must be from the Faculty of Arts. Science 311 may be counted among the 18 units (3.0 full-course equivalents) from other Faculties.
36 units (6.0 full-course equivalents) - Options
Note: The following substitutions allow students to enter the honours program later in their studies:
(a) The calculus sequence Mathematics 265, 267, 367 may be replaced by Mathematics 281, 283, 381 or an equivalent sequence with permission from the Department of Mathematics and Statistics.
(b) Mathematics 273 may be replaced by a grade of "B+" or better in Mathematics 271 with permission.
(c) Mathematics 213 may be replaced by a grade of "B+" or better in Mathematics 211 or 221 with permission.
