Program Outline

Outline:

• Students will study modules worth a certain number of credits, and need 120 credits per year.
• Most modules are 20 credits – so students will study six modules each year.
• Some longer modules, such as a dissertation, are worth more.
• In these cases, students will study fewer modules - but the number of credits will always add up to 120.
• Some modules are compulsory, some are optional, so students can build a course that’s right for them.

Assessment:

• Students will be assessed through a mix of examinations, coursework, presentations and group projects.

Teaching:

• Students will learn in small groups as part of a close-knit mathematical community under renowned researchers whose specialisms include fluid dynamics, mathematical biology, statistics, data science and industrial applications of mathematics.
• Students will have regular tutorials throughout their degree, where they can raise questions and explore concepts in discussion with their peers.

Careers:

• Graduates have gone on to work in science and technology, banking and finance, government, and more.
• This course is accredited by the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (IMA), which puts students on the pathway towards Chartered Mathematician status.

Other:

• Students with good A level results, or equivalent, may be eligible for the Gillian Stead Scholarship – worth up to £6,300 over three years.
