Study mathematics

Real graduate

'I chose to study mathematics as it has practical applications and relevance within many different occupations. QUT helped me follow my passion for observing and explaining phenomena. The skills I acquired allow me to analyse problems quickly and accurately, giving me more time to assess my options and make well-informed decisions.'

'I love maths because everything you learn you never knew existed before. It blows your mind sometimes when you realise that the things around us can be modelled using maths. At QUT, you have the opportunity to spend the summer working with the lecturing staff on a real research project, which really gives you an idea of what real mathematicians do.'

'It's an exciting time to be studying maths, with a shortage of mathematicians in a range of industries. QUT boasts a number of excellent mathematics lecturers and researchers who go to great lengths to provide you with the support to develop your understanding of the material, and who have a natural aptitude for explaining complex concepts in an enjoyable and comprehensive way.'
