Four additional math courses that qualify for Honours Bachelor of Mathematics (BMath) degree credit.

Maximum Failure Requirement

The maximum number of failures allowed for a Joint Mathematics academic plan is 3.0 units. Included in this failure count are all failures that appear on a student's University of Waterloo official transcript, regardless of whether or not such failures are being included as part of the student's record for his/her degree by his/her home faculty.

Graduation Average Requirement

To graduate in a Joint Honours Mathematics plan, a student requires a minimum average of 60 based upon all the Waterloo math courses that a student has passed which a student enrolled in the Faculty of Mathematics could have taken for BMath degree credit. This average will include all such courses including repeated courses, regardless of whether or not such courses are being included as part of the student's record for his/her degree by his/her home faculty.
