It focuses on a principled approach to the foundations of mathematics and specific analytical skills required for the challenges of the information age. Mathematics provides the advanced tools and techniques needed for facing tasks, and takes an increasingly significant role in future developments, as IT systems and "big data" become ever more central to modern life. The course also incorporates elements of computing as well as more traditional applied mathematics modules.Throughout the course you will practise business report writing, presentation skills and learn the issues faced by the scientific community when developing leading-edge research. In the final year, you will undertake an individual research project which is mentored by an academic supervisor and contributes towards a significant portion of the final degree classification.
