Course Details - Modules

The programme consists of an overview of mathematics, including the core topics of calculus and algebra, with a focus on the application of mathematics to problems from the real world in areas such as probability, statistics, mechanics and computational methods. The areas covered are those of current relevance in mathematics and its applications and are reflective of the research interests and specialisms of the academic staff of the department. Students will pursue a mix of compulsory and optional modules, with just over half of their modules being compulsory. These cover the central topics of calculus, analysis, linear and abstract algebra, complex analysis, differential equations, and essential skills such as communication and use of mathematical software. Optional modules cover a wide range of topics from applied mathematics.

Course Details – Assessment Method

A range of assessment methods are employed in this programme with a balance of exams and coursework. Coursework elements include regular problem sheets spread through the academic year, alongside practical PC-lab work where appropriate. Alongside this assessed work students also have regular small un-assessed tasks and assignments to complete to develop their mathematical understanding through a hands on approach. In their final year all students also complete a dissertation on a topic of their choice. These assessments reflect a variety of styles and are designed to enhance employability skills.
