Our course focuses on applied and computational Mathematics, which is our team’s research specialism and a skill set highly valued by employers. You will have the opportunity to develop subject-specific skills (applicable in, for example, the biosciences, finance sector and engineering) and key transferable skills (including IT, problem solving, and written and oral communication).

Formal teaching will be delivered at Exton Park, Chester. We have put together a course to cater for the needs of both Single Honours Mathematics graduates and graduates who have studied Mathematics as part of a degree – for example, you may have studied Mathematics as part of a joint honours course or as part of a physics-related degree.

You will have the opportunity to work on projects directly linked to the degree team’s own research, which includes work of both a theoretical and practical nature. You will also have access to specialist mathematics computing facilities and a well-stocked library, including electronic resources.

We have several resources in place to facilitate part-time study, and we welcome enquiries from people who wish to pursue their academic studies while remaining in employment.

There is an option to choose a Project/Placement year for this course, at an additional cost.
