Mathematics with Data Science, BSc (Hons)

Ninety-five percent of our Mathematical Sciences research is rated world-leading or internationally excellent (REF 2021). This course equips students with essential skills in machine learning and data science to address complex data challenges. You will explore the interplay between mathematics, data, and statistics, gaining a solid foundation in theories and techniques. Through practical application of algorithms for analysing, interpreting, and visualising large datasets using real-world examples, you'll develop expertise with tools like Python and R. Our faculty, leaders in fields such as smart materials, artificial intelligence, social networks, and infectious disease control, ensure modules reflect cutting-edge research.Upon graduation, you'll emerge as a confident quantitative scientist, ready for careers in financial services, information technology, or research. The programme meets educational requirements for the Chartered Mathematician designation from the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications, with options for a four-year MMath or MMath with placements. Join a supportive department at our scenic campus near Brighton, offering easy access to London and beyond, where the University of Sussex fosters innovation and global impact.
