Course summary

At Exeter we are strongly motivated by the application of Mathematics. It is an exceptionally powerful tool that is an essential part of life in the real world. There is a strong link between what we teach and what we research. Strong links across industries provide real examples of situations to be solved logically. We have three Met Office professors within climate mathematics and good links with Biosciences and Physics; at Exeter you have the flexibility to choose. Mathematics degrees give a firm foundation in Pure Mathematics, Applied Mathematics and Statistics/Optimisation. In the first and second years there are compulsory modules in all these areas, together with some optional modules. A system of electives in Years 2 and 3 allows you to take modules in other subjects at the University, for example in Business, Modern Languages or Psychology. Choosing Mathematics at Exeter gives you: •The flexibility and freedom to choose a wide range of optional modules - enabling you to sample various disciplines and specialise if desired. •Research led teaching - all academic staff are active, internationally recognised researchers across a wide range of mathematical topics. •First-class equipment and excellent facilities - a £2.8 million investment including a major expansion of computer facilities and completely refitted lecture theatres. •Staff committed to helping you make the best mathematics career choices - you'll be guided at every step to help you choose the best mathematics option for you. This programme will meet the educational requirements of the Chartered Mathematician designation, awarded by the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (IMA), when it is followed by subsequent training and experience in employment to obtain equivalent competencies to those specified by the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) for taught masters degrees.
