Our School of Mathematics and Physics is based in purpose-built facilities in the University’s Isaac Newton Building, and offers a variety of courses across both disciplines. Our Mathematics degrees aim to provide a fundamental education in mathematics, including pure and applied mathematics, while our Physics degrees combines fundamental and applied physics with rigorous mathematics and computational training. Our foundation year programmes provide an alternative entry route onto these full degree programmes.Following successful completion of the Science Foundation Year, students will then progress onto the first undergraduate year of their chosen degree programme. This means students will study for a total of four years for a standard degree, or five years if they take an integrated Master’s degree. Students’ final awards upon graduating will reflect the full course title, for example ''BSc Physics with Science Foundation Year".
