This programme provides a four-year route to a number of BSc (Hons) degree programmes offered in the Department of Mathematical Sciences.

Students follow the Foundation Year and then can opt to follow one of the programmes offered in the Department:

• Mathematics BSc (Hons) (G100)
• Mathematics and Statistics BSc (Hons) (GG13)
• Mathematics and Economics BSc (Joint Hons) (GL11)
• French and Mathematics BA (Joint Hons) (GR11)

A mathematically-based degree opens up a wide range of career opportunities, including some of the most lucrative professions.

Typical types of work our graduates have gone onto include as an actuarial trainee analyst in the audit practice, a graduate management trainee risk analyst and as a trainee chartered accountant on a graduate business programme. Employers value mathematicians’ high level of numeracy and problem solving skills.

Financial rewards are impressive, research by Pricewaterhouse Coopers revealed that mathematical science graduates earn on average an extra £241,749 over their lifetime than those who leave school after A levels. This is the third highest ‘graduate premium’ of all subject areas.
