On postgraduate level, the honours and master’s degrees are both structured with specialized modules presented in both. Modules that are regularly presented are Algebra, Topology, Graph Theory, Digital Image Processing, Financial Mathematics, Functional Analysis, Ring Theory, Coding Theory and Fluid Dynamics.

For admission to a Master’s Degree in Mathematics or Applied Mathematics, the student needs Mathematics or Applied Mathematics, or the equivalent at Bachelor Honours level. In addition, all applicants will have to write and pass an admission examination to verify sufficient background and foundational mathematics knowledge. If necessary, students may be required to take additional undergraduate modules as supplementary prerequisites for certain Masters’ modules. Proficient performance in the TALPS Test is required before enrolment.
