Course summary
Course overview
Mathematics plays a vital role in shaping and enriching modern life. It underlies the algorithms and calculations driving todays technology, enables the analysis of vast datasets to identify trends, and influences fields ranging from healthcare to finance.
Our Mathematics (Applied Mathematics) degree integrates a thorough study of the three core disciplines-pure mathematics, applied mathematics, and statistics-with specialist final-year topics in applied mathematics. The programme also prioritises the development of problem-solving, logical reasoning, practical, and employability skills that are highly valued by employers.
Course structure
During your first year, you will build a strong foundation in mathematical thinking with modules in algebra, calculus, and differential equations, whilst developing your skills in data analysis using the statistical software R. You will also begin to develop key employability skills by working in teams on group projects, solving problems and communicating your findings in visual ways.
Throughout the programme youll apply your learning to real-world theories or experiences, providing context to your learning and strengthening your understanding. Youll also have the chance to align your studies to your passions by choosing from a variety of optional modules.
In year two, you will strengthen your knowledge in pure and applied mathematics, probability and statistics, whilst expanding your skillset by learning the programming language Python. Focusing on your employability skills, you will have the opportunity to spend time in industry with both full time and modular placement opportunities. You will also build on your professional and transferable skills with extended problem work, report writing, effective communication of mathematical results, and collaboration with others.
In your final year you will study several specialised modules related to applied mathematics including Fluid Mechanics, Waves and Mathematical Modelling. You may also choose to work on a final year research project, applying theoretical knowledge and problem-solving skills to a technical, software, research or business problem. Your research project is an excellent opportunity for you to draw together skills in experimental study design, critical interpretation of data, presentation and project management.
