This course brings together two of the most fundamental and widely-applicable intellectual skills. Mathematical knowledge and the ability to use it is the most important means of tackling quantifiable problems, while philosophical training enhances the ability to analyse issues, question received assumptions and clearly articulate understanding. The combination provides a powerful background from which to proceed to graduate study in either mathematics or philosophy or to pursue a diverse range of careers. Historically, there have been strong links between mathematics and philosophy; logic, an important branch of both subjects, provides a natural bridge between the two, as does the Philosophy of mathematics module. The degree is founded on the belief that the parallel study of these related disciplines can significantly enhance your understanding of each.

Conditional offers will usually be for AAB if a student is able to take three Advanced Highers; where this is not possible then a student would be expected to achieve AA in two Advanced Highers, as well as an A grade in an additional Higher course taken in Year 6. | International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme: 39 UCAS points | with 7 6 6 at HL, including 7 in HL Mathematics | Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Extended Diploma (first teaching from September 2016): {'start': ['D*D*D*'], 'end': ['DDD']} | Conditional offers would usually be: Extended Diploma with D*D*D to DDD, depending on the course. Diploma with DD plus an A grade at A-level, possibly with one or two * grades, depending on the course. Subsidiary Diploma with D plus two A grades at A-level, possibly with one or two * grades, depending on the course. | Leaving Certificate - Higher Level (Ireland) (first awarded in 2017): H1H1H1H1H2H2 | Cambridge International Pre-U Certificate - Principal: D2D2D3 | Pre-U subject requirements are the same as those for A-levels.
