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 university (discuss with your Honours/Masters/Program Coordinator to confirm your eligibility and receive the required permissions. )

Interested in honours or masters teaching over the AMSI ACE Network?
- We’re seeking proposals for core and varietal subjects. Core subjects cover topics identified as priorities, and are intended to run on a yearly recurring basis. There is no requirement that they be offered by the same institution each year. Varietal subjects cover topics of interest to the community, and you’re welcome to nominate your own.
- In recognition of the hard work that goes into producing quality honours and masters subjects, AMSI will provide lecturer payments of $1500 per approved subject (conditional on external students being enrolled post-census date).
