The first two stages of the programme are designed to provide a sound foundation in Mathematics, which will underpin subsequent work and to introduce students to topics in Statistics and Computer Science which they have the option of developing further in later stages through specialist study.

The main strength of the programme is the way in which the third and fourth stages are designed in a modular fashion to allow the student significant choice from courses in Algebra, Analysis, Mechanics, Statistics, Operations Research and Financial Mathematics. The programme includes a six month placement in stage three, during which students gain experience of using their analytical, problem solving and computer skills in a working environment.


Contents

Stage One

Foundation Mathematics, Calculus, Discrete Mathematics, Linear Algebra, Statistics, Computer Architecture, Programming, Professional Development, Mathematics Modelling, Mathematics Laboratory.

Stage Two

Calculus/Analysis, Linear Algebra, Discrete Mathematics, Operations Research, Statistics, Numerical Methods, Databases, Operating Systems, Professional Development, Mathematics Modelling.

Stage Three

Numerical Analysis & Applications, Ordinary Differential Equations, Statistics, Maths Practical. Students also choose three optional subjects from the following:

* Real Analysis
* Complex Variables
* Classical Mechanics
* Algebraic Structures
* Financial Mathematics
* Network Analysis & Transportation
* Stochastic Mathematical Modelling

There will also be a six-month placement (or equivalent) in an Industrial/ Commercial or Public Sector organisation. On successful completion of Stage 3, students (who so decide) may exit with a BSc (Ordinary) Degree in Mathematical Sciences.

Stage Four

Six modules are chosen from Group A for Semester 1 and three modules are chosen from Group B for Semester 2. A project is also undertaken in Semester 2.
