Mathematics with Computer Science

Combine your passion for Mathematics and Computer Science. The two subjects have common roots stretching back to the dawn of computing and together have solved some of the most fundamental problems in science and industry. You will explore the beauty of mathematics in familiar areas such as calculus, algebra and probability, taught in a new and inspiring way, and extend your skills into computing-intensive topics such as fluid dynamics, artificial intelligence and high performance computing.

• Acquire state-of-the-art mathematical and computing skills that are highly sought after by industry, including machine learning and optimisation.

• Understand and develop algorithms that are essential for the modern world, while mastering computer programming using languages such as Python and R.

• Be trained in parallel computing, something rarely offered at undergraduate level, using our campus supercomputer.

• Be inspired by the research activities of staff – interests include artificial intelligence, large scale simulations, offshore renewable energy, quantum physics and environmental statistics.

• Enjoy new facilities – state of the art lecture theatres, computer laboratories, study and social spaces – in our £50 million teaching and research building that opened in 2023.

• Core modules are shared with BSc Mathematics, allowing the flexibility of easy transfer to our other mathematics degrees.

• 100% of our students agreed that staff are good at explaining mathematics in the 2022 National Student Survey.

• As a graduate of this degree you can exploit the increase in available computing power, which is key to future economic growth and enhances your employability.
