Master Of Science In Mathematical Sciences
About
The Master of Science in Mathematical Sciences programme is designed to provide students with advanced, in-depth knowledge in their chosen areas of mathematical sciences. It fosters a systematic approach to conducting research, enabling students to master their specializations and make original contributions to the field. The programme also helps students develop the analytical, logical, and problem-solving skills essential for advancing in the diverse and expanding discipline of mathematical sciences. It provide a pathway for existing BSc (Hons) Actuarial Science and BSc (Hons) Actuarial Science and Finance students in UCSI University to further their studies at the master level. A lot of postgraduate degree holders in Mathematical Sciences are needed to fulfill human resources requirement in STEM (M stands for mathematics)
