MMAth Mathematics with French Language

  • Objectives The Mathematics course is taught by the three departments of Pure Mathematics, Applied Mathematics and probability and Statistics. Most Single Honours students start by studying Core Mathematics and all three of these subjects and may specialise in one or two of them later on. Dual Honours students take Core Mathematics and some of the same modules as the Single Honours students, and spend roughly half of their time in the School of Mathematics and Statistics. You will spend your third year abroad. There is scope for changing degree course within the first few weeks of arriving in Sheffield, and sometimes at the end of the first or second year. The courses in Applied Mathematics and Probability and statistics do not assume prior knowledge of these subjects. Your third year is spent in a French university, learning Mathematics in the French language. During your first, second and fourth years, spent at Sheffield, some Mathematics courses are replaced by courses in French language at an appropriate level. Candidates are expected to have a good A Level in French to enter this course.
  • Entry requirements Entry requirements GCE/VCE A Levels ABC BTEC National Diploma - 2 Distinctions and 1 Merit Two GCE A Levels plus two GCE AS Levels - AB+CC Scottish Highers - AAAB-AABB (plus at least two Advanced Highers) Irish Leaving Cert. - ABBBB - AABBB International Baccalaureate - 32-33 points including 5 in Higher Maths Core Requirements - Grade C in GCE A Level French plus Grade A in GCE A Level Maths.
  • Academic title MMAth Mathematics with French Language
  • Course description Our students usually select from a range of compulsory and optional modules to add up to 120 credits.

    Some departments offer courses that don't feature optional modules whereas other courses are fully flexible.

    Important notice :

    This is a list of modules that have been offered in the past. We expect similar modules to be offered for courses starting in 2009.
