Let's start with some Astrophysics Links for those who don't want to know the course details...
The Department of Mathematics and Statistics has an active Research Group working in the fields of Astronomy and Astrophysics. As well as our research projects, we present undergraduate and graduate level teaching in these subjects.

Starting in 1998 we are offering an ASP4000 for those who wish to complete their Honours Degree in Astrophysics. The subject will involve some compulsory lecture units as well as an extended fiedl trip to Mt Stromlo Observatory. There is also a research-oriented project, counting for 40% of the final assessment for the year. For further details, please contact either me or the Astrophysics Co-ordinator Paul Cally.

Starting in 1996 the Mathematics and Physics Departments combined to present a Major course of study in Astrophysics for 3rd year students.
If you are interested in the Course, here is an overview in html and a briefer version in postscript.
If you want the 1997 handbook entry then you should click here .
Here are the general pages for the Astrophysics Major
