MSc Mathematics

Introduction

The usefulness of mathematics is very subjective. For many it is seen in terms of the arithmetic skills which are required at home, in the office or workplace, some see mathematics as the basis of scientific development and modern technology while some emphasize the increasing use of mathematical techniques as a management tool in commerce and industry. Medicine and the biological sciences, geography and economics, business and management studies all require the application of mathematics. Mathematics is also useful in terms of investment in Business/Commerce and Stock exchange.
