Course summary

This course provides a solid foundation in the ideas and techniques of modern statistics and operational research. Operational research, or management science, uses advanced statistical and analytical techniques to help organisations and individuals make decisions efficiently. Working in this field, you might be: - determining manpower and resources - finding sequences in a supply and procurement chain- developing customer profiles and segments This three-year degree will give you a good grounding in general mathematical theory and techniques. You’ll develop the skills, methods and ways of thinking you need to become a confident statistical analyst, able to tackle complex organisational problems using methods such as data collection, statistical modelling and simulation. In most cases, you're free to switch between our different mathematics degrees at the end of year one if your interests change. You will also have the opportunity to complete a professional placement year or a year abroad. You don’t need to commit to either of these options until the start of the second year, so there’s plenty of time to decide.
