Course Description

Why choose this course

Mathematics and statistics form the basis of many aspects of modern life and have applications across the sciences, technology, finance and management.

Encompassing the latest advances in both disciplines, our courses enable you to develop skills such as creative problem-solving and logical reasoning, which are in great demand in a range of sectors.

As a mathematics undergraduate at Surrey, you’ll be part of a vibrant and friendly community. You’ll benefit from a personal tutor, small group teaching, and a lively, research-active learning environment.

You can also take part in our award-winning Professional Training placements scheme, which prepare students for roles in various sectors.

What you will study

Our courses help you build on your current knowledge and gain a strong foundation across the fundamentals of mathematics and statistics. This includes algebra, analysis, probability and advanced calculus. Between one-quarter and one-third of modules are statistics.

In your first year, you’ll also develop your mathematical programming skills using Python, which will be further developed in Year 2, and gain experience with R programming.

In Year 3, you’ll be able to choose from a broad range of optional modules in topics such as experimental design, asset pricing theory, mathematical theory of data science, Bayesian statistics, and graphs and networks.

You can choose to study for a BSc or opt for our MMath. The latter is a direct route to a masters qualification and enables you to delve deeper into advanced mathematics. It also provides a good foundation for further study at postgraduate level.

This programme will meet the educational requirements of the Chartered Mathematician designation, awarded by the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications, when it is followed by subsequent training and experience in employment to obtain equivalent competences to those specified by the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) for taught masters degrees.
