About this course

Take your knowledge of mathematical techniques and statistical principles to a higher level. The MMath includes an integrated year of Master's-level study and the opportunity to conduct a project in collaboration with an external organisation. This challenging degree takes your study of Mathematics and Statistics to Master’s level.

It is the ideal choice if you are considering postgraduate study or a career that requires high-level numeracy skills or research. The MMath combines a strong mathematical grounding with the latest developments in statistics and machine learning to provide the foundation you’ll need to step into a data-driven workplace. The first two years follow a similar structure to the BSc.

The wider range of modules introduced in Years 3 and 4 explore more sophisticated mathematical and statistical techniques in greater depth. The course is based in a brand-new facility, purpose-built to meet the learning, teaching and study needs of students from the Department. You will be taught by a team of mathematicians and statisticians with a wealth of experience in industry and research.
