Our Mathematics Courses

G100 Mathematics (BSc)

This is a 3-year maths degree that is broad and highly flexible.

  • 1st year: 8 core modules (75% of the typical workload)

  • 2nd year: 5 core modules plus an essay (55% of typical workload)

  • 3rd year: No core, but you will do at least 50% maths
     

G103 Master of Mathematics (MMath)

This 4-year degree is a natural route for those contemplating a mathematical career in industry, business or academia.

  • Same core as the BSc degree

  • Students must do at least 75% maths each year
  • In year four, students undertake a substantial project at the edge of mathematical research, or at the interface of real-world applications.

You are free to do 100% maths, or if you prefer, we offer the opportunity to choose options from several other world-class departments at Warwick. This provides flexibility to tailor your degree to suit your interests and your potential career.

Mathematics and Statistics (BSc)

Mathematics enhances your ability to think clearly, learn new ideas quickly, manipulate precise and intricate concepts, follow complex reasoning, construct logical arguments and expose dubious ones. The demand for mathematical statisticians has expanded so rapidly in recent years that both within and outside the academic world there is a severe shortage of well-qualified people.

Mathematics and Statistics (MMathStat)

The demand for mathematical statisticians has expanded so rapidly in recent years that both within and outside the academic world there is a severe shortage of well-qualified people. The BSc and MMathStat are the same for the first two years of study, making it easy to reconsider your preference in the second year. Differences become apparent in the final years, with the MMathStat degree offering a supervised research project and the possibility to specialise in areas such as advanced statistics, biostatistics, computational statistics, actuarial and financial mathematics, and probability.

Mathematics and Physics (BSc)

Mathematics and physics are complementary subjects and make a sensible combination to study at university. There are many examples of unexpected discoveries resulting from interaction between the two disciplines. Ideas developed in particle physics have led to advances in geometry - a branch of pure mathematics.

Mathematics and Physics (MMathPhys)

Mathematics and Physics are complementary disciplines and make a natural combination for university study. Often a way of thinking developed in one discipline leads to new insights into the other.

You will be jointly taught by the Institute of Mathematics and Department of Physics. The Warwick joint degree course is among the best established in the country and the course includes a number of modules from both contributing departments designed specifically for joint degree students.
