Bachelor of Arts, majoring in Mathematics
Structuring your major in Mathematics
You can take a major in Mathematics as one of your two BA majors (a double major). Complementary BA majors with Mathematics could be Philosophy or Logic and Computation. If you wanted to add another dimension to your studies, you could choose your second major from any other BA subject, such as Sociology or History.
You will need to pass at least 120 points (eight courses) towards each of your majors, including at least 45 points (three courses) at Stage III.
