Course summary
Are you fascinated by abstract concepts such as infinity and symmetry? Do you want to develop your skills in problem solving and analysis?
Our BSc in mathematics will prepare you for a career in which you can apply the knowledge and skills you have learnt. The course will enable you to enhance and develop your transferable skills in project work, group study and presentations.
There's a range of specialised modules across all branches of mathematics, based upon our diverse research interests. Our academics are working on problems that span:
-
medicine, biotechnology and food security
-
epidemic modelling
-
fluid mechanics, with applications in industry and biology
-
statistical machine learning
-
algebra and number theory
-
mathematical finance
Modules
All students follow a common programme of study for the first year. You will focus on core modules that provide a solid foundation in the main mathematical topics. You'll build on your existing knowledge in areas such as calculus, probability and statistics. There will also be an introduction to key mathematical concepts in pure and applied mathematics.
During the second year, alongside compulsory modules, you'll start to specialise by choosing from a range of optional modules. There's also the option to choose modules from outside of maths, such as a language or business, to expand your learning even more.
The third year provides you with even more freedom to choose optional modules in the areas that interest you. From cryptography to quantum theory, or finance to fluid dynamics, you'll have multiple options to choose from. You will do a project module providing you with an introduction to mathematical research and learning skills that will be useful for your future career.
Please visit the university webpage for full details of the modules available.

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.
We consider applicants solely on the basis of their merits, abilities and potential – we use exam grades to prioritise applicants but look at a range of factors and aim to give everyone an equal opportunity to show their achievements.
We understand that background and personal circumstances can have an impact on academic performance at school or college. Applicants who are eligible under our contextual admissions policies may be considered for a reduced contextual offer.
