Course summary

If you are both mathematically inclined and interested in computer science, then a Mathematics and Computer Science degree is perfect for you.

Taught jointly by the Departments of Computing and Mathematics, this course will enable you to develop a firm foundation in mathematics – particularly in pure mathematics, numerical analysis and statistics.

You will also learn the essentials of computer science, with an emphasis on software development and broader theoretical topics.

Your studies will incorporate core modules and project work from both departments, while also providing opportunities to choose from a wide variety of optional modules and focus on subjects that most appeal to you.

As computing principles and mathematical ideas spread into all facets of life, this course will help you cater to the growing demand for professionals with expertise in both areas.
