About this course
BSc in Mathematics with Statistics for Finance, a mathematics and mathematics and statistics degree focused on mathematical theory and quantitative methods. Core topics include Programming, Data Analysis, Statistics, Mathematical Modelling, Research Methods, and Communication & Writing. The curriculum includes independent and group research projects alongside opportunities to select specialized modules. The first year establishes core foundations through Introduction to University Mathematics, Analysis 1, Linear Algebra and Groups, and Calculus and Applications. Students also take Probability and Statistics, Introduction to Computation, An Introduction to Applied Mathematics, and Individual Research Project. The second year advances learning with Analysis 2, Group Research Project, Linear Algebra and Numerical Analysis, and Multi-variable Calculus and Differential Equations, accompanied by I-Explore module, Probability for Statistics, and Statistical Modelling 1. Optional modules in the second year include Groups and Rings, Lebesgue Measure and Integration, Partial Differential Equations in Action, Principles of Programming, and Classical Mechanics.
