Course summary

The BSc (Hons) in Mathematics will teach you to understand complex patterns and structures, and develop the tools with which to analyse them. Whether these patterns relate to physical or biological phenomena or the structure of mathematics itself, the primary aim is to describe, categorise, and understand the processes involved. Students of Mathematics will acquire the analytical techniques, clear logical thinking and deductive reasoning necessary to explore some of these fascinating areas of research. Mathematics is studied up to Honours level in both the Faculty of Science (BSc) and the Faculty of Arts (MA). Students who have a background in the sciences or who wish to study Mathematics alongside science subjects at St Andrews should apply for the BSc. For those interested in studying Mathematics alongside Arts subjects, the MA in Mathematics may be of interest instead. The BSc (Hons) in Mathematics is a four-year course run by the School of Mathematics and Statistics. The School also offers an MA in Mathematics, which may be more suitable for students who wish to take Mathematics alongside Arts subjects. The Mathematics element within both the BSc and MA degree programmes are exactly the same. In the first two years, you will develop and reinforce your basic mathematical skills and refresh familiar material (e.g. complex numbers, matrices, vectors, differential equations) in preparation for more specialist study at Honours level.
