This is the flagship major that any leading university of the world is obliged to offer. Students will be exposed to all important areas of mathematical knowledge including algebra, logic, number theory and combinatorics, real and complex analysis, differential equations, geometry and topology with focus on mathematical foundations and fundamental techniques.

The Department of Mathematics at NUS is the largest department in the Faculty of Science. We offer a wide range of modules catered to specialists contemplating careers in mathematical science research as well as to those interested in applications of advanced mathematics to science, technology and commerce. The curriculum strives to maintain a balance between mathematical rigour and applications to other disciplines.

We offer a variety of major and minor programmes, covering different areas of mathematical sciences, for students pursuing full-time undergraduate studies. Those keen in multidisciplinary studies would also find learning opportunities in special combinations such as double degree, double major and interdisciplinary programmes.
