Applied Mathematics
Mathematics is the backbone of society. From the algorithms that define how we send money and how we predict disease infection rates to how we predict the weather and how we design and build infrastructure — mathematics exists far beyond the textbooks.
If problem solving inspires you, our applied maths degrees will give you a deep understanding of mathematical and numerical methods to describe real world behaviour — and predict it.
When you study mathematics at Swinburne, you’ll understand how to analyse big data and other complex systems. Through our maths courses you’ll also learn to use your skills to process information across a wide range of industries.

"I don’t think I would have had such amazing opportunities presented to me at other universities. I chose Swinburne because experience can never be replaced by academic ranking."
