Content

The mathematics content is identical to that of the BSc in Mathematics. Two courses in software development in computer science introduce key ideas in programming.

Work in mathematics extends in both applied and pure mathematics. In computer science, software design and programming languages are core courses.

Topics develop mathematical skills and knowledge, and introduce ideas used at the forefront of modern mathematics. The computer science material includes theory of computing and programming language semantics.

Further exploration and specialisation in advanced mathematics is possible with options related to our research expertise, together with computer science options in rigorous methods for software engineering and artificial intelligence and intelligent agents. Students will complete a mathematical project.

More in-depth information on the content of the courses listed above, how they are assessed and the learning outcomes can be accessed via our current student portal.
