The information on this page is accurate for students entering the programme from September 2024. For students who entered the programme before September 2024, you can find the details of your programme:
MMath, BSc Mathematics (Single degree scheme)
The programme will aim to:
- introduce students to the major branches of mathematics;
- meet the needs of students with varied mathematical backgrounds and with different aspirations within mathematics;
- enable the student to appreciate the coherence, logical structure, and broad applicability of mathematics;
- impart an awareness of the values of research and scholarship in mathematics;
- accustom students to the use of tools, including libraries and computers, that are available to mathematicians;
- provide a thorough training in the intellectual skills and advanced techniques of modern mathematics;
- develop the ability of students to abstract and generalize, to model various phenomena, and to interpret numerical data;
- enable future mathematicians to develop the skills associated with problem solving, rigorous argument and communication;
- educate new mathematicians to meet the needs of employers, including those in industry, finance, education and the public services;
- broaden and deepen the mathematical background of students;
- prepare students to work in fields where specific and broadly based advanced mathematical knowledge is required;
- enable students to embark on research in some area of mathematics or statistics;
- for those spending the year abroad in a non-English speaking country, enable the students to learn a foreign language and use it in studying mathematics at a University abroad;
- give students the opportunity to experience a wide and deep mathematics curriculum;
- give students the chance to undertake a substantial project.
