Course summary

Support. That’s what you’ll get from us – and lots of it. We know that mathematics is a beautiful subject, but it can also be challenging. Our staff are not only experts in a range of mathematical fields they’re also here to guide you on your journey and even inspire you to develop your research areas.

You’ll start with the core building blocks like algebra, calculus and statistics before focusing on advanced topics such as mathematical biology, quantum cryptography and graph theory. To back up all this knowledge, you’ll apply it to real-world situations in the classroom and our innovative facilities.

You'll explore numbers, data, quantity, structure, space, models, change, and mathematical applications that are fundamental to business and society. If you have a passion for mathematics, this course will help you to discover the proper application of modern techniques. The Mathematics degree course blends theory and practical applications so that you’ll be fully prepared for specialist employment in various roles and sectors.

In Years One and Two, you’ll explore various mathematical techniques and applications. Then, in your final year, you’ll get to choose several specialist modules depending on your personal preferences and career aspirations.

Accreditation
This course is also accredited by the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications, which is a seal of approval from the professional body and will help you on your way to Chartered Mathematician status.

Research scholarships
Every year we offer a small number of Mathematics Undergraduate Research Scholarships (MURS), giving successful applicants funding for a six-to-eight-week placement in one of our research teams. This is an excellent opportunity for you to further your research interests and contribute to the academic activities of the mathematics department.

More student opportunities
Our students run a Mathematics Society, and you’ll have the opportunity to participate in regular events hosted on campus by the local branch of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications.

T Level

We will consider T Levels for entry to this course, either as stand-alone qualifications or in conjunction with other Level 3 qualifications, in accordance with the specified course tariff points.

A lower offer may be made based on a range of factors, including your background (such as where you live and the school or college you attended), your experiences and individual circumstances (you may have been in care, for example). This is called a contextual offer and we get data from UCAS to make these decisions. NTU offers a student experience like no other, and this approach helps us to find students who have the potential to succeed here, but may have faced barriers that can make it more difficult to access university.

We also consider equivalent qualifications and combinations. Please contact Nottingham Trent University Admissions team for further information.

Contextual admissions

Universities and colleges consider more than grades when assessing applications and may make offers based on a range of criteria. Learn more about contextual offers.

NTU makes contextual offers for this course to give everyone a fair chance to access their chosen degree.

Contextual offers are lower than our standard entry criteria or may be an unconditional offer for courses that require a portfolio. We also take individual circumstances into account when we receive results and may accept grades lower than our published criteria.

We use a range of data from UCAS to make our offers and more information on our approach is available at the link below.
