Important information From Semester 1 2013, Actuarial Studies will no longer be offered as a major in the Bachelor of Commerce program. This can now be studied within the new Bachelor of Actuarial Studies program. The Bachelor of Commerce/Bachelor of Science in Advanced Mathematics (BCom/BSc (Adv Maths)) is a 5 year dual degree program which will meet the needs of students wanting an advanced program of study in mathematics or statistics, complemented with a strong, focused and highly regarded business course. As part of this program students will complete a major stream in both a selected area of mathematics or statistics, and an approved disciplinary stream within the Australian School of Business. The BSc component includes the potential award of honours based on overall performance, and incorporates a single major and a research project. Majors are defined on the Advanced Mathematics Program (3986) page. With approval, students with an appropriate academic record may also enrol in an additional Honours year within the Australian School of Business. Students are not able to take a modern language as a major stream within this degree. For detailed information on the professional recognition this degree offers please visit Professional Recognition of Programs in the UNSW Online Handbook.
