Course summary

From understanding and developing the underpinning principles of engineering so that humans can fly in aeroplanes, to the ability to launch rockets into space – throughout modern history, some of the most prized achievements of the human race have involved mathematics. This course will allow you to explore the core of pure mathematics, along with modules from applied mathematics, statistics, and operational research. Mathematics and data is a fascinating and highly creative area. Our Mathematics degree is taught in small, friendly, group-learning environments with high levels of individual support from lecturers with strong backgrounds in both mathematics and education. You will be able to decide whether to specialise into a certain branch of mathematics or to keep your options open by maintaining a broad range of modules. The facets and rigour developed will not only enable you to become a mathematics specialist but will allow you the insight and techniques to open a wide range of situations and areas outside of mathematics. This course has been accredited by the Institute of Mathematics and its applications, which means that all graduates meet the educational requirements to become chartered mathematicians.
