Course summary

Harness the power of logic and reasoning to solve complex real-world analytical, technological, and scientific challenges.

Mathematics underpins much of the modern world. It’s behind the most advanced scientific and technological developments. It explains the phenomena in your everyday life: the acceleration you feel in a car, how much interest you’re gaining in your bank account, the way characters interact in video games.

Solving the problems of the 21st century alongside other intellectually curious students, you’ll be able to tailor your degree to your interests and career aspirations as you choose from a variety of modules.

Create an impression

Taught in our recently renovated £18-million building with state-of-the-art facilities, you’ll be inspired by a large team of expert academics. Learn from their years of experience in industry and hear about their cutting-edge research, including how Mathematics helped save thousands of lives in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Outside the lecture theatre, you can experience events led by our award-winning Mathematics Society. Or perhaps you’ll discover new ways of thinking from experts in one of our seven research groups, including algebra and number theory, statistics with data science, and more.

Make your mark after graduating by fuelling future developments in research, or work in finance, data, engineering or artificial intelligence, for prestigious organisations such as Dyson, JP Morgan and the Financial Conduct Authority.

Modules

YEAR 1
Introduction to Algebra
Introduction to Analysis with Calculus

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. All students on MSci programmes and some BSc students will also complete a final-year project.
