Short Description
<<Programme Video>>
The Bachelor of Science in Computing Mathematics programme was introduced in 1994. This major is unique in Hong Kong. It emphasizes the balance between theories and their applications to practical problems, with a special focus on applied mathematics linked to computational aspects.
The major aim at equipping students and producing graduates with a strong background in data analysis, mathematical modelling, scientific computing and technical computer software. Students are trained to think quantitatively and analyse problems critically. Our graduates contribute to the commercial, financial and industrial sectors in Hong Kong and throughout Greater China. The programme focuses on linking the applied areas of mathematics and computing.
BSc Computing Mathematics students are eligible to apply for the following joint degree programmes:
- Joint Bachelor's Degree Program between City University of Hong Kong and Columbia University
- Joint Bachelor's Degree Program between City University of Hong Kong and The University of Edinburgh
