The Honours Specialization in Applied Mathematics is offered by Western University's Department of Mathematics within the Faculty of Science, leading to a four-year Honours Bachelor of Science degree. The module comprises 9.0 courses built around a calculus and mathematical methods foundation, extending into applied mathematical topics used to model and analyze problems in the physical, biological and quantitative sciences. Students begin with introductory calculus or numerical and mathematical methods coursework before progressing to specialized upper-year applied mathematics electives. Admission to the module requires completion of first-year requirements with no failures and an average of at least 70 percent across specified principal courses, including designated calculus and numerical methods courses, with no mark below 60 percent in any of them. The programme develops analytical and quantitative modelling skills, preparing graduates for careers and further study in applied mathematics, data science, engineering, finance and other fields requiring advanced mathematical training.
