Description
BSc Integrated four year degree scheme in Mathematics combining a foundation year followed by one of our Single Honours degree schemes.
Enhanced first year contact hours and small class sizes.
The additional support through the foundation year is particularly suitable for those students who may have under-performed at A level but have an interest in Mathematics and the potential to complete a degree.
The scheme targets the achievement of better degree results and enhanced employability.
