The Bachelor of Science (Honours) is a one year postgraduate qualification for students who already have an undergraduate qualification in Applied Mathematics or Computer Science and wish to enhance their bachelors qualification with another year of advanced study. It is also suitable for professionals seeking to advance their professional practice. The Applied Mathematics specialisation equips students with advanced mathematical methods and techniques, and their applications in modern science, engineering and finance. Various sectors of industry face increasingly larger-scale problems that can be solved only through a specialised knowledge and skills in applied mathematics. The Computer Science specialisation covers advanced industry technologies such as: Java's JPA and JSF; EJB and Spring framework; smartphone platforms; bleeding edge and emerging technologies such as manets; web 2.0 techniques such as REST and mashups; advanced real time graphics programming; and parallel and grid computing. The papers are amongst the most advanced in the world for server and mobile system development.

Bachelor of Science (Honours) graduates will have advanced knowledge and capabilities in a specialised field of applied mathematics or computer science. They will have the ability to undertake advanced independent research and will be prepared for further postgraduate study at masters or doctoral level. Some of the career opportunities include: * Computer game and 3D graphics programmer * Cryptographer and security analyst * Java EE or .NET software developer * Mobile computer systems developer * Systems architect/designer * Technical software developer
