Mathematics and Statistics offers an engaging blend of subjects ideal for individuals with inquisitive minds, robust IT skills, and a keen interest in analyzing data patterns. This BSc program integrates a solid mathematical foundation with advanced statistics and machine learning, preparing graduates for data-driven careers. Taught by experienced mathematicians and statisticians from industry and research, the course leverages departmental expertise in pure and applied mathematics. Students benefit from a modern facility designed for optimal learning, starting with a broad Year 1 introduction to pure and applied mathematics, statistics, and probability, followed by increased statistical focus in Year 2.In the final year, students undertake an in-depth individual or internship project, often collaborating with external organizations for real-world application. Core Year 1 modules include Analysis, Calculus, Linear Algebra, Dynamics, Probability, Programming, and Statistics, covering topics from number systems to Bayesian principles. Assessment combines written and computer-based exams, project reports, presentations, and a substantial final-year project worth one-third of marks. Options for a placement year or study abroad extend the program to four years.
