• Objectives
  The BSc Mathematics is intended for those who are looking for a good mathematical education to degree level but do not require the volume of specialist material necessary for the professional mathematician. The programme is the same as MMath until the end of Year 2, after which there is a range of topics designed to give an overview of mathematics and its applications.
• Entry requirements
  There are different entry qualifications for each programme. Some programmes require you to have a certain amount of knowledge in a subject before you begin the degree programme – this is called a ‘subject requirement’. Other programmes do not have any specific subject requirements. All programmes will, however, expect you to have reached a certain standard in your education and will ask you to achieve certain grades in your examinations. Most programmes have a standard offer so that you know in advance what you are likely to need. Please note that even if you have the minimum entry qualifications, you are not necessarily guaranteed a place on the degree programme.
