SPECIALIST PROGRAM IN MATHEMATICS - Comprehensive Stream (SCIENCE) - SCSPE11659

Supervisor of Studies: Prof. Michael Cavers michael.cavers@utoronto.ca

Program Objectives
This program provides the student with a sound foundation in the main areas of mathematics, and some exposure to computer programming and statistics. It comprises three streams: Comprehensive, Statistics, and Teaching, each serving a more specific goal.

The Comprehensive Stream provides a broad and deep knowledge of mathematics at the undergraduate level. It is the recommended program for students who plan to pursue graduate study in mathematics, but it is also suitable for other career paths.

Enrolment Requirements

Enrolment in the Specialist Program in Mathematics (all streams) is limited. Students may apply to enter the program after completing 4.0 credits, and must meet the requirements described below:

1. Students already admitted to the UTSC Year 1 Mathematics admissions category:

Required Courses:

Students must have passed the following CSC and MAT courses: CSCA08H3, [CSCA67H3 or MATA67H3], MATA22H3, MATA31H3, and MATA37H3.

Required Grades:

Students that meet all of the following requirements will be admitted to a Mathematics Specialist POSt* of their choice:
a. A cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of at least 2.5 over the following courses: CSC/MATA67H, MATA22H3, MATA31H3, and MATA37H3; and
b. A final grade of at least B in two of the following: CSC/MATA67H3, MATA22H3, and MATA37H3.

*Students must select one stream of the Mathematics Specialist.

2. Students admitted to other UTSC Year 1 admissions categories:

Students that have been admitted to other CMS admissions categories (Computer Science or Statistics) or any other of the UTSC Year 1 admissions categories are eligible to apply for a Mathematics Specialist POSt. Admission will be based on academic performance in the required A-level courses, identified above. The admission requirements change each year depending on available spaces and the pool of eligible applicants, and students are cautioned that there is no guarantee of admission; as such, students are strongly advised to plan to enroll in backup programs.

For more information about the admission requirements, please visit the following CMS webpage.

Program Requirements
The Program requirements consist of a core 15 courses (7.5 credits), common to all streams, and additional requirements that depend on the stream, for a total of 26-27 courses (13.0-13.5 credits).

The structure of the programs allows for easy switching between streams until relatively late. Consequently, these programs should not be viewed as rigidly separated channels feeding students to different career paths, but as a flexible structure that provides guidance to students in their course selection based on their broad (but possibly fluid) interests.

Core (7.5 credits)

1. Writing Requirement (0.5 credit)(*)

SPECIALIST PROGRAM IN STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT - Entrepreneurship Stream (BACHELOR OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION) - SCSPE2432Q

Academic Director: S. Ahmed, Email: mgmtss@utsc.utoronto.ca

At its most fundamental level, effective strategic management is about understanding and successfully managing strategic interactions with other firms and individuals. Strategic interactions take place whenever our fortunes depend not only on our own actions, but also on the actions of our rivals (and vice versa). In these instances, our optimal actions and those of our partners and competitors are inextricably connected. How should we think about these interactions and formulate an action plan?

The Specialist Program in Strategic Management, which includes a Management Strategy Stream and an Entrepreneurship Stream, will give students the skills to address this essential question. Integrating tools from economics and other management disciplines, you will gain a profound understanding of business and corporate strategy and their sub-disciplines, and/or entrepreneurship.

Overall, as a Strategic Management specialist, students will develop an ability to identify, simplify, and analyze highly complex business problems, to strategize implementable solutions, and to articulate the key elements of their strategic reasoning in a simple, compelling and engaging way to a non-expert audience. Indeed, the strategic mindset that students will gain from this specialty will help them successfully navigate the stormy waters of business, whether they plan a career as a management consultant, economic consultant, manager in private-sector, public sector and non-profit organizations, investment banker, or entrepreneur.

SPECIALIST PROGRAM IN STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT - Management Strategy Stream (BACHELOR OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION) - SCSPE24320

Academic Director: S. Ahmed, Email: mgmtss@utsc.utoronto.ca

At its most fundamental level, effective strategic management is about understanding and successfully managing strategic interactions with other firms and individuals. Strategic interactions take place whenever our fortunes depend not only on our own actions, but also on the actions of our rivals (and vice versa). In these instances, our optimal actions and those of our partners and competitors are inextricably connected. How should we think about these interactions and formulate an action plan?

The Specialist Program in Strategic Management, which includes a Management Strategy Stream and an Entrepreneurship Stream, will give students the skills to address this essential question. Integrating tools from economics and other management disciplines, you will gain a profound understanding of business and corporate strategy and their sub-disciplines, and/or entrepreneurship.

Overall, as a Strategic Management specialist, students will develop an ability to identify, simplify, and analyze highly complex business problems, to strategize implementable solutions, and to articulate the key elements of their strategic reasoning in a simple, compelling and engaging way to a non-expert audience.
