Our course has a flexible format. It allows you to combine modules from pure and applied mathematics and statistics, together with optional modules from other UEA schools.  

Our academics are enthusiastic and knowledgeable. You will benefit from a very high academic-staff-to-student ratio, ensuring you graduate with a deep understanding of mathematics.   

Our lecturers are also active researchers who conduct world-leading work and incorporate it into their teaching. You will learn within the most up-to-date settings. 

If you excel in your academic performance and wish to study further, you could take the opportunity to transfer from the BSc course onto our four-year integrated Master’s in Mathematics (MMath) programme.  

PLACEMENT YEAR AND STUDY ABROAD

Depending on your academic results, you may be able to transfer from the BSc Mathematics onto our MMath Master of Mathematics, and onto our MMath Masters of Mathematics with a Year Abroad or our BSc Mathematics with a Placement Year at the end of year 1.

AFTER THE COURSE

There are many professions that are traditionally associated with mathematics, such as accountancy, banking and finance, statistics and data analysis, and secondary or higher education.   

However, there are many others in which logical thought and problem-solving are important. These include information technology, engineering, logistics and distribution, central or local government, as well as other business areas. Many of our graduates also choose to continue their studies by going on to a higher degree.   

The School of Mathematics works together with the University’s Careers Service to offer support to students at every stage of their course, from finding paid or voluntary work opportunities and choosing a career, through to applying for graduate jobs.
