Course Overview
The first two years of the program provide a thorough grounding in pure mathematics and mathematical methods. In addition to mathematics, students take modules in modern languages each year. The third and fourth years offer a wide range of options in both mathematics and languages, including a major project in the fourth year.
Language Modules
- Language modules are offered at seven levels from complete beginner's (level 1) to advanced (level 4) and post A level (levels 5-7).
- Each student is expected to study at least one language to level 4.
- Students are encouraged to study other languages in addition.
Teaching and Learning
Modules
- The first year mathematics modules are all compulsory, studying the core ideas of modern mathematics (analysis, algebra, mathematical methods).
- The remaining 25% of modules in the first year will be in a foreign language.
- There is also an introduction to coding.
Assessment
- Most modules are assessed by written examinations in the third term, with a small element of coursework assessment.
- Fourth-year projects are assessed in two parts: a written project (70%) and an oral presentation (30%).
