Access more honours and masters subjects online

Every year, AMSI Member Universities around Australia broadcast Honours and Masters subjects over the AMSI ACE Network, enabling students, early-career researchers, industry professionals and academics to participate virtually.

  • Join lecturers and students in interactive videoconference classes in the mathematical sciences
  • Open to honours, masters and PhD students, early career-researchers and industry professionals looking to upskill
  • Third-year undergraduate students are welcome to enrol
  • Subjects may be taken for credit with the permission of your home university. Discuss with your Honours/Masters/Program Coordinator to confirm your eligibility and the process you need to follow (e.g. enrolling in a shell subject.)

Read the subject guides and take the pre-enrolment quizzes below to find out about the level of foundational knowledge required for each subject.
