  <course-description>&lt;p&gt;The work comprises coursework and research. Each of these contributes 50% to the overall program grade.&lt;br /&gt;For the coursework component, courses totalling a minimum of 24 units must be taken. Students should check the Department of Mathematics third/fourth year course page for a list of available Honours and special topics courses.&lt;br /&gt;For the research component, a research thesis is produced, which normally takes the form of an in-depth survey article on a particular topic in pure or applied mathematics.&lt;/p&gt;</course-description>

  <learning-outcomes>&lt;p&gt;On satisfying the requirements of this course, students will have the knowledge and skills to:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1. Explain the fundamental concepts of a chosen research topic and its role in modern mathematics and applied contexts.&lt;br /&gt;2. Systematically identify relevant theory and concepts, relate these to appropriate methodologies and evidence, and draw appropriate conclusions.&lt;br /&gt;3. Demonstrate capacity for mathematical reasoning through analysing, proving and explaining concepts from the chosen research area.&lt;br /&gt;4. Engage in systematic discovery and critical review of appropriate and relevant information sources.&lt;br /&gt;5. Communicate research concepts and contexts clearly and effectively both in writing and orally.&lt;/p&gt;</learning-outcomes>

  <requisite-statement>&lt;p&gt;To qualify for admission to the Honours Year in Mathematics, an ANU student must have successfully completed at least 48 units of Group B or Group C courses relevant to the proposed Honours study, of which at least 24 units must be for Group C courses. At least a Credit average must have been achieved in these 48 units. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is recommended that all students should include in their program &lt;a href="/courses/MATH2405;details.html"&gt;MATH2405&lt;/a&gt;, MATH2406, &lt;a href="/courses/MATH2320;details.html"&gt;MATH2320&lt;/a&gt; (or &lt;a href="/courses/MATH3116;details.html"&gt;MATH3116&lt;/a&gt;) and &lt;a href="/courses/MATH2322;details.html"&gt;MATH2322&lt;/a&gt; (or &lt;a href="/courses/MATH3104;details.html"&gt;MATH3104&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;</requisite-statement>
