BA Mathematics

 Mathematics can be taken as part of the UL Arts Degree as a joint honours combination. Review the subjects you can study with Mathematics by looking on the BA Arts course page.

Mathematics is an extensive and diverse subject and is a powerful tool with many applications, which are much sought after by a wide range of employers.  Studying Mathematics will equip you with the ability to think logically, to construct coherent arguments, to understand abstract ideas and concepts and to solve practical problems.

The Mathematics programme on the Bachelor of Arts in UL has been designed so that graduates of the programme will satisfy the Teaching Council requirements in order to specialise in mathematics in a Professional Masters in Education (PME).  It includes modules in Algebra, Linear Algebra, Probability and Statistics, Geometry and Differential Equations.   The modules are taught through lectures, tutorials (small group teaching) and labs.

Note: Students are required to hold/have a minimum H5 grade in Mathematics to study Mathematics on LM002.  Students are also required to achieve a satisfactory performance in Mathematics in year 1 to progress with Mathematics from years 2-4.
