Course programme

This four-year course follows a similar structure to the Masters of Mathematics, but with the third year spent abroad with one of our university exchange partners. The first year of study comprises core compulsory modules to establish your knowledge on essential topics. You will have the chance to select from optional modules in the second and final years in order to allow you to direct your own studies. In the final year you also undertake an independent research project on a subject of your choice, with a project supervisor to help guide you.

Year 1
In the first year you will undertake a set of compulsory modules to consolidate a broad knowledge of mathematical disciplines, primarily algebra and calculus. This is supplemented by classes on the applications of mathematics, problem solving and analysis. The skills you gain from these courses will be revisited throughout the degree and should help inform your future module choices.

Year 2
As you progress into your second year, you will continue to learn essential algebraic principles through compulsory modules whilst taking a selection of optional modules to suit your personal interests. Topics covered in optional courses include cryptography, quantum theory, mathematical modelling and topology. You will also have the opportunity to study an individual research project, which is excellent preparation for the final year and allows you to widen your mathematical expertise.

Year 3 (Year Abroad)
After developing a broad mathematical knowledge during your first two years, you will spend your third year studying at one of our university exchange partners in another country. We have particularly strong links with institutions in North America and Australia – in recent years students have spent their year abroad in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Canberra, San Diego, Illinois and Colorado – but other locations are available. We take into account your field of interest and placement preferences, and do our best to place you at the university of your choice. See the “Year Abroad” tab for more details.

Year 4
You will undertake a substantial individual project during your final year, working closely under the supervision of a lecturer whose expertise matches your subject. Each of the lecturers proposes project titles covering a very wide range of current mathematical research, but many of our students come up with their own topics in conjunction with one of our lecturers. Recent topics have ranged from “The Mobius function of Finite Groups” to “The Aerodynamics of Golf Balls” (a topic suggested by the student). The project is assessed through a written report as well as a short oral presentation to lecturers and fellow Masters students on your findings. For the remainder of your final year, you will choose from a range of Master’s-level modules that explore topics such as lie algebra, fluid structure interaction and statistical mechanics. The topics on offer typically change every year.
