BSc (Hons) Mathematics with Statistics with Placement Year

It’s all about applying your learning. Starting with algebra, calculus and statistics - the foundations of mathematics – before moving onto advanced topics like statistical modelling and computational statistics.

Supported by our expert staff, you’ll get lots of chances to bring into play the mathematical skills you’ve explored and apply them through statistics. You’ll discover how these have unlocked some of the ground-breaking discoveries in mathematics.

In today’s information age, a massive amount of information is gathered every day. That’s why statistical skills are highly valued in the workplace so we’ll help you develop yours. You’ll be hands-on throughout your course and will use our specialist equipment regularly – including mathematical and statistical software, virtual reality and 3D printing technology.

Thanks to these practical experiences, you’ll be confident and work ready when you graduate.

Our Mathematics degrees are current and relevant to the needs of the business. Our close links with the industry mean that, if you wish, you’ll have the opportunity to take up job placements with some of the world’s leading companies.

Research scholarships

Every year we offer a small number of Mathematics Undergraduate Research Scholarships (MURS), giving successful applicants funding for a six-to-eight-week placement in one of our research teams. This is a great opportunity for you to further your research interests and contribute to the academic activities of the mathematics department.
