This joint honours degree offers the opportunity to study two different subjects together, whilst having the freedom to follow your own interests.Compulsory modules in each subject will equip you with an understanding of mathematical structures and techniques while teaching you how to think clearly, analyse ideas and construct effective arguments. You’ll think about morality, knowledge, the self, logic, philosophy of the mind or the nature of reality alongside algebra and calculus.We also offer an impressive range of optional modules allowing you to shape your degree to your own interests. It’s an excellent way to gain a broad range of expertise and graduate with both the knowledge and transferable skills that employers value.
This module will introduce you to core skills and key knowledge that any mathematician needs, from understanding the fundamentals of number systems through to being able to solve ordinary differential equations. The skills and knowledge from this module will be foundational for later years' studies across diverse areas of mathematics, as well as applying directly into your studies of probability and statistics or informing your studies in real analysis.
This introductory module offers you a foundation in some of the formal and informal reasoning skills used in philosophy.
This module introduces you to central issues in philosophy of mind, epistemology, and metaphysics which concern the self and its relationship to the rest of the world.
Understanding data and statistics is a critical skill for the modern graduate. This module will introduce you to the theory of probability, which forms the foundation for statistics, as well as developing some key statistical concepts and techniques, equipping you to navigate better the numbers that describe our lives. This module will not open up any further study options later.
Real analysis is concerned with the rigorous study of real numbers and real-valued functions, providing a precise framework for understanding and proving mathematical statements about these objects. This module will therefore lay the foundations of differential calculus, developing your problem-solving skills and ability to read and write mathematical proofs. This module may open up some extra options for further study in later years.
This module develops your philosophical skills to analyse and construct arguments, your ability to identify a philosophical issue or problem, and apply that understanding to your other joint honours subject, to develop your understanding of how your two subjects relate to each other.
This final year project option allows you the freedom to design and carry out a piece of extended independent research with the individualised support of a supervisor with research expertise in your chosen area.
This advanced level module critically explores philosophical issues concerning the nature and application of logic or mathematics
