Build the foundations for a successful career by exploring the topics across pure and applied mathematics that align to your interests and goals.

Our MSc Mathematics course gives you the freedom to choose from a variety of advanced modules across pure and applied mathematics, ranging from algebra and topology to financial mathematics and machine learning.

Strong mathematical skills open all kinds of doors, and through our MSc Mathematics course you’ll develop the knowledge and experience needed for roles spanning finance and consultancy, data science, computing, public administration, research and education.

Whether you want to advance your understanding of the topics you found most interesting during your undergraduate studies or gain the skills needed to achieve your goals, our flexible one-year course is designed to help you build the foundations for a successful career.
