The University of Queensland is the leading provider of Mathematics Education and Research in Queensland and is one of the leading eight Universities in Australia.

The Mathematics Department is internationally recognised for its teaching and research and is equipped with state-of-the-art computing facilities.

We have a range of student facilities including:

  • large undergraduate laboratories with 100 networked PCs;
  • access to modern teaching tools through mathematical software packages;
  • access to high performance computing and visualisation workstations;
  • extensive library access to the internet;
  • an extensive choice of subjects and combinations to ensure your degree will place you at the leading edge of your chosen career.

Some of the Research Centres attached to the department are:

The Advanced Computational Modelling Centre (ACMC)

Centre for Applied Dynamical Systems, Mathematical Analysis and Probability

Centre for Discrete Mathematics and Computing

Centre for Mathematical Physics

Centre for Plant Architecture Informatics (CPAI)

CSTAT: Centre for Statistics

To undertake major studies in mathematics, students need to take at least Maths B, and preferable also Maths C, in their senior years at school.

To be admitted to a course, you must meet two basic requirements. First, you must have passed the prerequisite subjects for the course at the required level. Secondly, your Overall Position (OP), or equivalent Rank (Entry Score) must be high enough to obtain a place in a course quota.

For further information about the Department see our Departmental Handbook which is available from our website .
