Bachelor of Mathematics - Bachelor of Computer Science
Requirements
To qualify for the award of the degrees of Bachelor of Mathematics
and Bachelor of Computer Science by joint registration a candidate
shall satisfactorily complete the subjects and the credit points
as prescribed, and, in so doing, satisfy the requirements of Course
Rules 108 and 107 for the Bachelor of Mathematics and the Bachelor
of Computer Science, respectively.
Minimum Performance Requirement
Candidates must maintain a weighted average mark (WAM) of at least
65 at the end of each year otherwise they must show cause as to
why they should be permitted to remain registered for the two courses
jointly.
Candidates who, at the end of any year of registration, have satisfied
the requirements of Course Rule 011, but who do not have a WAM of
at least 65 and who have not given adequate reason as to why they
should be permitted to continue with registration for the double
degree, will be required to transfer into either a Bachelor of Mathematics
or a Bachelor Computer Science, the choice being that of each such
candidate.

The following program of study is recommended to satisfy the requirements
in minimum time.
