Program Overview

Take one of the few UK degrees in pure mathematics, at a school renowned for research in algebra, combinatorics and logic.

In the first year of your Pure Mathematics BSc, you’ll build a solid foundation across all areas of mathematics, discovering a new world of concepts and ideas while studying pure, discrete, decision mathematics, probability and statistics.

From your second year, you’ll concentrate on algebra, geometry and analysis. You’ll encounter new kinds of mathematical objects and investigate their common features and abstract natures, focusing on the intrinsic beauty of pure mathematics more than real-world applications. In your second and third study years, you'll have the freedom to choose from a mix of compulsory modules and options, allowing you to focus on the aspects of pure mathematics that most interest you.

Course Content
Structure
You can complete your Pure Mathematics degree in three or four years. If you choose to do a year abroad, this will take place in Year 3, and Year 3 modules will instead be studied in Year 4.
