Department of Mathematics
Planning a postgraduate diploma
Students considering completing a postgraduate diploma within the Department of Mathematics should read here for subject options and regulations.
The Postgraduate Diploma is the most popular graduate programme, possibly because you can take up to four years to complete it.
You need to pass eight 15-point courses at either the 600 or 700-level, with at least 75 points in the Major, such as Mathematics or Applied Mathematics.
If you are doing the degree in Applied Mathemat¬ics, you must pass MATHS 361: Partial Differential Equations and either MATHS 362: Methods in Applied Mathematics or MATHS 363: Advanced Modeling and Computation, before enrolling in the degree.
If your average marks for the courses of your Postgraduate Diploma in Science are sufficiently high, you will be awarded the degree with distinction or merit.
