  • Top 10 in England for Mathematics (National Student Survey, 2021)
  • Accredited by the Institute of Mathematics & its Applications
  • Graduate with a broad range of transferable skills to succeed in a variety of careers
  • Focus on modelling real-world scenarios and unstructured problem solving
  • Internship, placement and year in industry opportunities
The first year of the programme will carefully explore the core areas of mathematics, including calculus, algebra. Furthermore particular attention will be given to making sure you have a solid foundation in mathematical methods and techniques. We will train you to think logically, construct rigorous proofs, introduce useful mathematical structures and think in abstract terms. You will also have the flexibility to choose an optional module in an area suited to your interests. Your understanding of the core areas of mathematics are built upon in years two and three with streams of modules in pure mathematics, applied mathematics and statistics. To help develop the skills employers are looking for, you will also learn the programming language Python and understand how mathematics is used in a professional environment. In year three you will have the flexibility to tailor your studies to your personal interests by choosing from a wide variety of optional modules. This is a great way to apply your mathematical skills, problem solving prowess and logical thinking to fascinating advanced topics like fluid mechanics, mathematical biology, cryptography and financial mathematics. You may also choose to work on a final year project where you can unleash your creativity and apply the techniques you have acquired throughout your studies to a particular topic or problem in mathematics or statistics.
