Immerse yourself in the worlds of mathematics and computer science. Our joint honours MSci Mathematics and Computer Science programme will prepare you for an advanced career in our digital world. You’ll dive into statistics and computer systems, programming and security while studying in a supportive and fun community. Discover how to apply analytical, statistical, computational and programming skills to formulate and tackle problems. Take your studies to a higher level with the fourth-year research project in a topic that most interests you. We’ll help you step up to university level maths, then dive into the more advanced areas. Our expert academics will guide you to become an independent and self-motivated mathematician and computer scientist. Learn to solve complex problems, communicate technical content and spend time delving into your chosen research topic in more detail for a project. Solve real-world problems and prepare for roles in industry or academia.
