BSc (Hons) Applied Mathematics

Mathematical training develops specific skills and broad analytical expertise, which are valued across all professions. There is also a particular demand for graduates who not only have quantitative skills but also know how to use them. This course delivers that sought-after combination €“ through our teaching style, and our focus on real-world applications of both mathematical and statistical techniques. For example, you'll use the mathematics computing laboratories as an integral part of your learning process, making your study as much experimental as theoretical. Our Computing Science and Mathematics division provides a stimulating and supportive learning environment, and we have a strong and active research group. Its primary interest is the application of mathematics to biology, economics, and life sciences. We also offer you the choice and flexibility to study Mathematics in combination with subjects such as Accountancy, Computing, or Finance.
