Minor

The students who have opted for a minor - minor in Mathematics, minor in Geography, minor in Engineering Sciences : Applied Chemistry and Physics or a minor to be chosen from the UCL programme, will choose 15 credits from the programme of the minor chosen.

Minor in Mathematics (30 credits)

The programme of the minor in Mathematics is made up of 30 credits, according to choice, from among the mathematics courses of the MATH major. These courses may be spread over the second and third years, respecting the different prerequisites. The PHYS bachelors who have already followed this minor will be admitted to the masters of Mathematical Sciences (possibly with an adapted programme). However, any student desirous of making this change in orientation is encouraged to contact the Study Advisor of the MATH department as soon as possible.
