About Mathematics, Operational Research and Statistics, MMORS - at Cardiff University

Combine the fields of statistics and operational research with advanced study of mathematics on a course carefully tailored to those looking for wide options and excellent career opportunities.

Specialist knowledge

Alongside learning advanced mathematical techniques, you will gain specialist knowledge and skills through extensive coverage of topics beyond the scope of the BSc degree.

Project-based year

During your final year, you will have the opportunity to complete a substantial mathematical project at an advanced level in a research area of your choice.

Flexible degree schemes

In most cases, you're free to switch between degrees at the end of year one if your interests change. You will also have the opportunity to complete a Professional Placement Year or a Year Abroad between years two and three. You don't need to commit to either of these options until the start of the second year, so there's plenty of time to decide.

Excellent facilities

You will be taught in Abacws, the new home for the School of Mathematics. This world-leading facility has been designed in collaboration with students and academic staff to create interdisciplinary, flexible and creative workspaces, with innovative teaching areas being a key feature, including a new simulated Trading Room for financial mathematics.

Professionally accredited course

This degree is accredited by the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (IMA).

Gain a deeper understanding of Operational Research and Statistics on the four-year MMORS degree. The course expands on the BSc to prepare you for high-level entry into relevant professions. It's also a solid base for pursuing a research career. The MMORS course is the same as the three-year BSc in Mathematics, Operational Research and Statistics with an additional year of study where you will complete a major piece of project work. This could include:

Not only will you explore a research topic of your choice, but you will also develop the crucial project and time management skills that graduate employers are looking for. Plus, you will gain the necessary skills, methods and ways of thinking required to analyse and tackle complex organisational problems and become a confident statistical analyst.
