Hey guys, long time lurker, first time poster here. I'm nearing the end of the first year of my undergraduate mathematics program. Starting next year I'll be getting a little bit more freedom in regard to what math subjects I can choose. I know it's a bit too early to worry about this but going on to do postgraduate studies in pure mathematics might be one of my options so I was wondering what subjects I should be taking from the following lists over the next three years:
undergraduate courses
graduate courses

Oh and this is the structure of the program I'm in.

Thanks in advance for your help.

You can choose from any of them:

either 2011 or 2111
2069
2089 probably
2099
either 2120 or 2130
2260 probably
2301
2400
either 2501 or 2601
either 2520 or 2602
either 2801 or 2901
either 2831 or 2931 probably


Not important:

2140 - applied maths course
2241 - applied maths course
2019 - mathemtical methods for engineering students
2859 - applied maths course
2871 - applied maths course
2881 - applied maths course


Worry about courses which are beyond the second year only after you complete the second year courses.
