Course summary

Our integrated Master’s in Mathematics provides a rigorous foundation in advanced mathematical theory and its applications. You will develop a well-rounded knowledge of key subdisciplines while having the flexibility to specialise in areas that interest you. The course equips you with a highly sought-after skillset, enabling you to apply creative and deductive thinking to a range of exciting careers, including in emerging technologies such as big data and AI. In your first and second years, you'll cover core subjects like calculus, algebra, probability and statistics. From your second year onwards, you can choose to specialise in specific areas or explore a broad range of subjects. Our third and fourth year options are extensive, ranging from geometry to financial mathematics, to algorithms and Machine Learning, and to theoretical physics and quantum theory. You'll also apply your knowledge directly to a dissertation, working one-on-one with a world-class expert in the field, and through an in-depth, six-month project in your fourth year, where you'll tackle a problem at the frontiers of research.
