This Master's programme offers a rigorous, comprehensive curriculum that combines advanced study with an international experience, allowing students to immerse in a new culture during their third year at partner institutions in North America, Australia, or New Zealand. The programme equips students with essential skills in analysis, problem-solving, and data handling, drawing from topics such as calculus, probability, algebra, and computational methods.In the first two years, students build and expand their knowledge through core modules in mathematical concepts and practical applications, including projects that enhance research and employment skills. The third year focuses on specialist optional modules abroad, subject to availability, while the fourth year involves advanced Master's-level courses and a major research project in pure mathematics or statistics. Lancaster University endeavours to facilitate overseas placements but cannot guarantee them or assume financial responsibility; alternatives are available if needed.
