We are in the process of a digital revolution. The way we interact with the world around us is changing at supersonic speed, and mathematicians and computer scientists are at the forefront of this cutting edge technology – spotting opportunities and solving problems in every area of our daily lives.

There has always been synergy between Mathematics and Computer Science and today these complementary skill sets are instrumental in creating a connected world. Throughout your course you’ll study in an informal, supportive environment which we believe is one of the reasons that pass rates on this course are so high. A large proportion of Mathematics students graduate with at least an upper-second-class degree. Our courses have consistently scored highly in the National Student Survey.

Our Computer Science and Mathematics degree is current and relevant to the needs of business. Our close links with industry means that, if you wish, you’ll have the opportunity to take up job placements with some of the world’s leading companies.

You’ll benefit from excellent teaching. We are in the top 10 in the UK for teaching quality in mathematics (The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2021).
