IELTS 6.0 overall with minimum 5.5 in each skill
Our extended mathematics course will give you the advanced mathematical methods, skills and techniques you need to build a successful career in mathematics.
Topics covered on this extended course include numerical mathematics, problem-solving and mathematical thinking, statistics and the use of mathematical software. If you're interested in teaching, you can apply for the Undergraduate Ambassadors Scheme, which helps you gain valuable classroom experience.
The course includes an initial foundation year, which provides the skills you need to make the most of your degree. In subsequent years, you follow the curriculum of our three-year course. The degree is accredited by the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications, the UK's chartered professional body for mathematicians.
Our mathematics courses are highly regarded, we are ranked 3rd in the UK in Mathematics for Student Satisfaction (Complete University Guide, 2022). Also, we are ranked 3rd in London overall, 1st for student satisfaction with the course, and also with feedback, and 2nd for student satisfaction with teaching (Guardian league table, 2022).
