Professional organisations are keen to hire graduate mathematicians to help them analyse problems, formulate questions and find solutions. There are a variety of business applications for the skills you will develop on this course. For example, the analysis of clinical data on the safety of new drugs for pharmaceutical companies.

During this mathematics and statistics course, you will acquire a broad understanding of mathematics and its applications. With the support of software to enhance your learning experience, we will teach you how to apply mathematical and statistical techniques. You will tackle realistic mathematical and statistical problems using these different techniques, evaluate the outcomes and interpret the results to build your knowledge.

You will learn through a variety of teaching methods designed to suit different learning styles, including:

• lectures
• seminars
• tutorials
• workshops
• peer review and observation
• student-led teaching with in-class presentations
• the Maths Café, which provides a high level of additional support for all modules.

As you study, you will develop transferable skills that you can use across different STEM roles. If you are looking for a diverse mathematics and statistics course that will prepare you for the changing needs of employers, this course is for you.

Once you graduate, you could go on to have a successful mathematics career with organisations that deal with:

• fiscal analysis and prediction
• meteorology
• environmental science
• engineering
• pharmaceuticals
• research
• market analysis
• risk assessment
• financial modelling
• stock-market trading
• education at all levels (with additional qualifications).

Mathematics graduates with higher degrees in computer science will be able to work with organisations that require advanced modelling skills.
