About this course
For entry in September 2021, you will require:
104 UCAS points from A-Levels which MUST include a grade C, or higher, in A-Level Maths
AND YOU WILL ALSO REQUIRE:
GCSE English (Language or Literature) AND GCSE Maths at grade 4/C or above. We also consider equivalent qualifications in English and Maths at Level 2, in place of GCSEs.
What you should know about this course
The BSc Hons Mathematics course will give you the opportunity to develop skills such as logical analysis, deduction, mathematical modelling, and problem-solving
You will learn to identify and analyse relevant data from different sources and acquire IT skills using specialist contemporary mathematical software packages
Throughout, you will learn how to apply mathematical concepts appropriately and enhance your verbal and oral communication skill while developing your ability to work in teams
Overall, you will have the opportunity to improve your capacity for problem-solving, independent thinking, interpreting and presenting mathematical findings, translating quantitative information into qualitative form
Our Mathematical Science degrees are consistently highly ranked for student satisfaction: 1st in London by the Complete University Guide 2019 and 6th in the UK in the 2019 Guardian University league tables for Mathematics.
