Minor Programme in Applied Mathematics (Programme Code: 63421)

Curriculum
Key: CA = Continuous Assessment EXAM = Examination

To complete the programme, students should fulfill the credit requirement being shown in Table I. In which, at least 9 of the 18 credits required for satisfying the Minor requirements should be at level 3 or above. Subject to approval by the Department, a student may count up to 6 credits from their Major (i.e. DSR) towards this Minor.

The pre-requisites for some subjects listed in the tables below may not be the same as those given in the syllabuses, as the source of students for the Minor programme in Applied Mathematics is different.
