BA (Hons) Mathematics (with Statistics)

In this course, you will establish a solid background in probability and statistics which will equip you with the theoretical framework. This is complemented with training in statistical software which will be then applied to other areas of the course. You will learn to use maths to develop precise and logical arguments, construct rigorous proofs, and formulate solutions to new problems. Mathematics helps you to take novel approaches to problem solving and make critical interpretations of data and text. Our programs are designed for students with varying educational backgrounds and we have a multi-layered student support structure. You will study in an intellectually stimulating environment amongst other mathematicians.
