Mathematics is at the heart of civilisation's greatest achievements, helping to solve the challenges we face every day. Our BSc (Hons) Mathematics course is designed to take your passion for problem-solving to the next level. 

Applied, career-focused learning

Our mathematics course is designed to take you to an advanced level. Blending applied methods with cutting-edge themes, like nanotechnology, economic stability and artificial intelligence, you’ll graduate with in-demand skills for the contemporary business environment. You will learn to make an important contribution to the world around us, be it in science, technology or engineering.

Supportive learning environment

Our mathematics classes are delivered using small group teaching, where you will examine real-world case studies as you build your skillset and confidence. You will learn in a supportive environment and have access to a dedicated maths drop-in service which runs throughout each semester and is staffed by our experienced tutors. 

In the 2021 National Student Survey, 90% of BSc (Hons) Mathematics students agreed that staff are good at explaining things [University of Salford analysis of unpublished NSS 2021 data].

Mathematics is integral to the development of society, and graduates have no shortage of exciting career options. The study and use of mathematical decision-making, and transferable analytical and problem-solving skills is highly-valued across a range of industries.  

Typical roles for mathematics graduates can include finance and investments, market research, meteorology, engineering, data analytics, and business operations.
