About this course

Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, Statistics and Data Science, a mathematics degree focusing on analytical methods and computational techniques. Core topics include Programming, Data Analysis, Statistics, Mathematical Modelling, and Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. Students complete a final-year project. The first year covers core foundations through Differential Equations and Mechanics, Mathematical Discovery: Problem Solving and Programming, Mathematical Foundations, Calculus and Linear Algebra, and Probability, Data and Statistics. The second year introduces Data Science and Machine Learning, Mathematical Challenge: Problem Solving and Programming in Business and Industry, Statistics, and Artificial Intelligence. In the final year, students undertake a Mathematical Project alongside optional modules such as Deep Learning and Neural Networks, Medical Statistics, and Number Theory and Cryptography.
