To earn an IB Diploma, a candidate must pass one of the following four mathematics courses: Mathematical Studies SL (Standard Level),Mathematics SL, Mathematics HL (Higher Level), or Further Mathematics SL.
Four courses in mathematics are available:
- mathematical studies standard level
- mathematics SL
- mathematics higher level
- further mathematics standard level which will become a higher level course in 2012 with first examinations in 2014.
These four courses serve to accommodate the range of needs, interests and abilities of students, and to fulfill the requirements of various university and career aspirations.
The aims of these courses are to enable students to:
- develop mathematical knowledge, concepts and principles
- develop logical, critical and creative thinking
- employ and refine their powers of abstraction and generalization.
Students are also encouraged to appreciate the international dimensions of mathematics and the multiplicity of its cultural and historical perspectives.
