Overview

The BSc Hons Mathematics has been accredited by the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications to meet the educational requirements of the Chartered Mathematician designation when followed by subsequent training and experience in employment to obtain equivalent competences to those specified by the Quality Assurance Agency for taught masters degrees.

In response to our students’ increased interest in pursuing a career in teaching, we also offer courses such as ‘Mathematics and Society’ and ‘UAS: Mathematics, Education and Communication’. The latter offers teaching experience through the Undergraduate Ambassadors Scheme. This encourages and nurtures a new generation of mathematicians and provides the opportunity to gain classroom experience as a final-year option.
