Course Overview

Our MSc Mathematics offers you the chance to study a range of modules in pure and applicable mathematics that are taught by active researchers. Depending on your choices, you will take either seven or eight modules, allowing you to study several different topics in-depth, and focus on the areas that interest you most.

You will also learn the methods of mathematical research: how to read mathematical papers and how to communicate mathematics, both in written form for your project dissertation, and orally when you give presentations about your project.

You will acquire the skills to pursue your interest in the subject, either formally with a research degree, or informally with independent reading. You will come to us as someone with a mathematics degree; you will graduate as a mathematician.

Graduates can pursue career paths in the financial sector, the actuarial profession, IT and computing, teaching, and academia. Possible professions include:

actuary

statistician

chartered accountant

corporate investment banker

investment analyst

quantity surveyor.
