You can contact staff by:

  • Calling +64 7 838 4466 select option 1, then enter the extension.
  • Extensions starting with 4, 5, 9 or 3 can also be direct dialled:
    • For extensions starting with 4: dial +64 7 838 extension.
    • For extensions starting with 5: dial +64 7 858 extension.
    • For extensions starting with 9: dial +64 7 837 extension.
    • For extensions starting with 3: dial +64 7 2620 + the last 3 digits of the extension e.g. 3123 = +64 7 262 0123.

What this paper is about

Edit What this paper is about Content

Real Analysis and Complex Analysis form the essential building blocks of the mathematics governing the physical world around us.

Although we adopt a formal approach to the subject, we are also motivated by a range of practical examples occurring in nature.

How you will be assessed

Edit How you will be assessed Content

More or less weekly assignments.

Two tests, at dates to be determined, the first test occurring in Week 6 and the second test in week 12.

A final examination which counts for 50% of the final mark.

Please note that, as part of any assessment, students may be asked to complete an oral examination (viva voce) at a later date.

Edit How you will be assessed Content

The internal assessment/exam ratio (as stated in the University Calendar) is 50:50. There is no final exam. The final exam makes up 50% of the overall mark.

The internal assessment/exam ratio (as stated in the University Calendar) is 50:50 or 0:0, whichever is more favourable for the student. The final exam makes up either 50% or 0% of the overall mark.
