Our Mathematics degrees cover a broad base of classical and modern mathematics. We offer a range of modules covering pure and applied mathematics and all single honours students complete a dissertation in an area of their choice in their final year. In all our schemes you will learn to use logical reasoning, construct rigorous arguments and develop communication skills. You will be taught in our new £32.5 million Computational Foundry Building which provides the most up-to-date and high-quality teaching facilities. These include a dedicated Mathematics Reading Room, at the heart of the department, for students to study in.
