Mathematics and Statistics with a Professional Placement

Study level:
Undergraduate
Awarded by:
Queen Mary, University of London

Course summary

Statistics is essential to making advances in science, technology, business and public policy, and a fascinating field of study in itself.
This BSc combines rigorous all-round mathematical training with in-depth study of statistics. If you want to take your study of statistics deeper and develop mathematical research skills, consider our four-year Mathematics with Statistics MSci.
You’ll spend your first year building a foundation across pure, discrete, decision and modern applied mathematics, probability and statistics. From the second year you’ll specialise in statistics, building statistical theory and methodology on mathematical foundations, especially probability theory. Probabilistic modelling has applications in genetics, quantum physics and risk analysis, and is increasingly used in the financial sector. You can study design of experiments, financial time series and actuarial mathematics.
A choice of modules in your second and third years allows you to focus on the aspects of statistics that most interest you, or broaden your studies to encompass other areas of mathematics. You can also align your studies to your career goals, choosing modules on programming, insurance, computational statistics or teaching.

Modules

YEAR 1

Introduction to Algebra
Introduction to Analysis with Calculus
Numbers, Sets and Functions
Probability and Statistics
Programming in Python I
Vectors and Matrices

Please note that all modules are subject to change.

Assessment method

Most of your modules will be assessed by an examination worth at least 90 per cent of the year’s study, with the remainder covered by coursework and tests. Some BSc students will also complete a final-year project.

Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Extended Diploma (first teaching from September 2016)

Queen Mary University of London welcomes applications from students currently studying Level 3 BTEC qualifications and will consider you for entry to the majority of our undergraduate courses. The typical entry requirements will vary according to the course you are applying for. Some of our courses require specific subject knowledge which you may not be able to cover as part of a Level 3 BTEC qualification and we may therefore require additional Level 3 qualifications to ensure that you are suitably prepared for relevant courses. A small number of our courses do not accept BTEC qualifications for entry, either as a standalone qualification, or in combination with other qualifications at Level 3. Information on our typical entry requirements and guidance for applying can be found at http://www.qmul.ac.uk/undergraduate/entry/btec/ If you are at all unsure about the acceptability of your BTEC qualification for entry, please contact the Admissions team for individual advice (admissions@qmul.ac.uk).

Access to HE Diploma - D: 30 credits M: 15 credits

We consider applications from students with the Access to Higher Education Diploma in a Physics or Mathematics based discipline. The minimum academic requirement is to achieve 60 credits overall, with 45 credits at Level 3, of which 30 credits must be at Distinction and 15 credits at Merit or higher. Applications are considered on a case by case basis. Due to the high volume of applications, we do not make offers of study purely on the basis of meeting grade requirements.

International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme - 32 points

6,5,5 in HL subjects, including Mathematics at HL.

GCSE/National 4/National 5

A minimum of five GCSE passes to include English and Mathematics at grade C or 4 or an acceptable equivalent will be required.

English language requirements

All applicants to QMUL must show they meet a minimum academic English language standard for admission and to be successful on the course. Please refer to the website below for details on our English Language requirements by course and acceptable alternative qualifications. You will also find important information regarding UKVI's English requirements if you are applying as an international student who will require Tier 4 immigration permission to enter the UK.
