Mathematics is a fundamental subject that is critical to our understanding of the world. Through the study of mathematics youll advance your problem solving skills, develop your reasoning and increase your analytical thinking. Mathematical models underpin engineering, the applied sciences, computing and many aspects of management today. With the MMath youll study for a further year and bring your BSc degree to masters standard. This means youll be able to get that competitive edge when you apply for jobs without having to go through the application process again after Level 3. Youll study many aspects of pure and applied mathematics, together with general concepts of mathematical modelling. When it comes to the application of mathematics, we cover finance, statistics, operational research (how maths can be applied to commercial and industrial problems), numerical analysis (the approximate solution of very hard problems) and mechanics.Careers and your futureCareer prospects for mathematicians are excellent and with the MMath youll be one step ahead of your peers when it comes to applying for jobs. Maybe you want to pursue a career that specifically uses your mathematical or statistical skills or would prefer a more general career, such as management or consultancy. Either way youll possess key skills that are highly sought after by business – in fact any industry that uses modelling, simulation, cryptography, forecasting, statistics, risk analysis and probability.Our combination of work experience and up-to-date teaching means that you will be well-equipped to follow the career you want after graduation.
