Programme description You will study a wide range of topics covering pure, discrete, decision and applied mathematics, probability and statistics. The first year covers essential fundamentals while in the second and final-years you will be able to choose from an exceptionally wide range of modules, which reflect our research strengths. Whether you want to specialise in statistics, finance, pure or applied mathematics, our wide range of modules will provide the opportunity.
Programme description In this degree programme you will experience the pursuit of mathematics for its own sake and the focus is not necessarily on applications. You will concentrate on algebra, geometry and analysis, building on A-level core and decision mathematics. For over 50 years Queen Mary has been renowned for research in algebra, combinatorics and logic, and we are one of the few higher education institutions to offer a programme in pure mathematics. You may benefit from our European research links, which provide the possibility of studying for a year in another European country (eg France, Germany, Spain or Italy).
