About this course
BSc Hons in Mathematics, Operational Research, Statistics and Economics (MORSE) (Industry), an undergraduate degree in the Mathematics and Mathematics, Operational Research, Statistics and Economics and Economics subject area, unites quantitative disciplines to solve practical challenges in commerce and industry. Core topics include Programming, Data Analysis, Statistics, Mathematical Modelling, Policy Analysis, Human Behaviour, Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. This four-year programme includes an integrated professional industry placement year during the third year. The first year covers core foundations through Computing for Business Decision Making, Managing Uncertainty in Business, Matrices and Calculus, and Probability and Statistics. The second year progresses into specialized analytical and economic concepts through Applied Data Science, Business Optimisation and Simulation, Forecasting and Machine Learning, and Microeconomic Analysis, with options including Games and Strategic Behaviour. The final fourth year advances technical capabilities via Advanced Optimisation and Simulation and Statistical Inference. Optional modules allow specialisation in areas such as Advanced Machine Learning for Data Mining, Behavioural Economics, Econometrics and Data Science in Economics, Mathematical Finance, and Public Policy Analysis.
