Aim: 
Candidates are equipped with advanced knowledge of mathematics and gain the foundation to conduct independent original research. 

Programme Objectives: 
Graduates are expected to apply critical thinking and analytical methods to career paths from either the educational or industrial sectors. Postgraduate programmes are designed to impart advanced knowledge and cultivate further self-learning. The programme motivates and guides students toward undertaking and executing research projects based on local, regional, or international problems.

The minimum entry requirement for the M.Sc. 2-year programmes is a B.Sc. in Mathematics with a grade point average of at least 3/5 (grade B or above) or equivalent. Those candidates who do not meet the minimum grade point average requirement must have served in relevant areas (teaching, research, industry) for at least TWO years and should demonstrate sufficient knowledge and aptitude to undertake higher studies.
