Overview
Mathematics has shaped societies for thousands of years – from the Ancient Babylonians to today's increasingly sophisticated technology. Continue the tradition of unpicking complex mathematical problems and apply your methods to scenarios such as monitoring the spread of disease, predicting the route of a cloud of ash from a volcano or forecasting climate change.
Study core mathematical topics including calculus, algebra, matrices, modelling and differential equations. Then shape your degree to your ambitions and interests in following years, by choosing optional modules in pure and applied maths such as abstract algebra, financial modelling, operational research and cosmology.
When you graduate, you’ll be in high demand, especially in the expanding technology, data and machine learning industries.
