Or you might want to use your maths skills to expand knowledge in areas as diverse as space travel, software development and complex medicine?Studying mathematics at Cardiff you鈥檒l develop your knowledge, understanding and skills in the main areas of mathematics. This five-year course provides a broad background in applied mathematics, statistics, computing and operational research. You鈥檒l explore abstract mathematical concepts, logical argument and deductive reasoning, and study the different ways mathematics can be applied to develop problem-solving skills.As you move through the course, you will gain academic independence, moving from small group teaching in your first year through to an optional independent project in your final year.The MMath shares the same core as our BSc in Mathematics but enables you to explore your areas of interest in greater depth, through optional modules, specialised year four modules and via a substantial research project. This particular version of the degree allows you to spend your third year studying abroad before returning to Cardiff for two more years. The School of Mathematics has agreements with institutions across Europe, the United States, Canada and Australia, and you will have support to apply for your overseas year. Studying abroad is a great way to broaden your academic knowledge, immerse yourself in another culture and gain skills that could be valued by employers. Not only can it enhance your CV by demonstrating key skills such as communication, flexibility and collaborative working, it can also provide you with valuable networking opportunities. Above all, it is the start of a new adventure. A chance to experience other cultures and viewpoints, make new friends and share unforgettable experiences.In your final year you will complete a major piece of project work which could include:- a survey of an existing area of mathematical theory not covered in taught modules- an introductory research project - the development of a piece of mathematical softwareOur degree schemes are flexible, so you're free to switch between our mathematics degrees at the end of year one if you decide not to take the year abroad or your interests change.
