Location of University of Greenwich
Mathematics, one of the most fascinating and intellectually challenging subjects, constantly develops the ways in which we live and think, as it plays a key role in most of today's scientific and technological advancements.
Students on this programme not only develop a sound knowledge of mathematics and its application to real-life situations but also build up their ability to analyse and solve problems. The degree presents students with an opportunity to acquire skills, such as logical analysis, deduction, mathematical modelling and calculation, which are valued by most employers. In response to increased interest from students wishing to pursue a career in teaching, we also offer courses such as Mathematics in Society and Mathematics, Education and Communication. The latter offers teaching experience through the Undergraduate Ambassadors Scheme.
Career options
Most industries are actively seeking graduates who have intellectual, mathematical and numerical skills that they can apply in a wide range of practical situations. In addition, there is a national shortage of mathematics teachers, and careers in education are possible.

IELTS
You are normally required to take an English Proficiency Test.
Most European Universities recognise the IELTS test.
Take testRequirements
Applicants should have:
200 UCAS points
FROM A-levels or equivalent
INCLUDING at least 60 points from a mathematical subject studied to A-level or equivalent.
PLUS GCSEs at grade C or above (including English and mathematics) or equivalent qualifications.
Language skills
If English is not your first language, you will need to provide proof of your fluency in English before you can begin a programme. The main systems for measuring this are IELTS with a minimum score of 6.0 for degree programmes or TOEFL with a minimum score of 550 for degree programmes. Recently the TOEFL computer-based test has been abolished to make way for the introduction of the Internet-based test, gradually eliminating the traditional paper-based method. Other qualifications may be satisfactory. We can tell you what is acceptable.
Additional Requirements
| Minimal degree required: | High School diploma |
| Minimal amount of work experience | Not specified |
Language Proficiency
| IELTS Band: | 6.0 |
| Cambridge English: Advanced (CAE): | Grade C (Score: 60) |
| TOEFL Paper-based: | 550 |
Accreditation
This programme will meet the educational requirements of the Chartered Mathematician designation, awarded by the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications, when it is followed by subsequent training and experience in employment to obtain equivalent competences to those specified by the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) for taught masters degrees.
