and one additional upper division MATH or MACM course, or any pre-approved quantitative upper division course offered by the Faculties of Applied Sciences, Arts and Social Sciences, Beedie School of Business or Faculty of Science. This course, if other than MATH or MACM, must be pre-approved by a department advisor. Students are encouraged to explore the option of completing courses outside the department and to discuss possibilities with a department advisor. Choices from the third group ("at least two of") must not include the course used to satisfy the second group ("at least one of"). At least three of the courses used to satisfy the upper division requirements must be at the 400 division.
NOTE: SFU students accepted in the accelerated master’s within the Department of Mathematics may apply a maximum of 10 graduate course units, taken while completing the bachelor's degree, towards the upper division electives of the bachelor's program and the requirements of the master's degree.
