Combine the advanced study of mathematics, statistics and operational research with an adventure-packed third year studying at a university abroad.
Year Abroad
Study at a university abroad where you can learn while you travel and experience the practices and culture of a different country.
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.
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. On this course, you will study at a university abroad during your third year before returning to Cardiff. Our School has agreements with institutions across the globe, and you will have support to apply for your overseas year.
Studying abroad as part of your university experience is a great way to broaden your academic knowledge, immerse yourself in another culture and gain skills that could be valued by employers. Not only can it enhance your CV by demonstrating key skills such as communication, flexibility and collaborative working, it can also provide you with valuable networking opportunities. Above all, it is the start of a new adventure. A chance to experience different cultures and viewpoints, make new friends and share unforgettable experiences.
