Bachelor of Science (Mathematical Science, with IT)

The Bachelor of Science (Mathematical Science, with IT) is offered by School of Mathematics, Applied Statistics and Actuarial Sciences

This programme which is being offered in Maseno University for the first time, has been specifically designed to provide a flexible approach to mathematical education by allowing participants to specialise through the course of the degree programme in areas of Mathematics, Applied Statistics and Actuarial Sciencess while ensuring that they have a solid foundation in Mathematics.

The programme targets professionals working or preparing to work in the banking, mathematical modelling, and research environments. The content of the later years of this programme are almost entirely elective to allow specialization in participants' respective areas of interest. In an improved and more dynamic approach to ICT integration into the Maseno University curriculum, the IT component of this programme has been fully embedded into the course content rather than offered as stand-alone modules.

The modules are offered in levels (1,2,3,4) which are equivalent to the corresponding year in the face to face programme (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th).
