About

Expand your mathematical knowledge, gain practical experience, and help prepare for a professional career with our BSc Mathematics with Finance and Investment Banking with International Foundation Year degree.

A programme designed for international students

If you want to study maths and finance at a British university but don’t have the required qualifications, our four-year BSc Mathematics with Finance and Investment Banking with International Foundation Year course enables you to undertake a degree at undergraduate level.

You will complete a foundation year (called Year 0) before progressing onto our three-year BSc Mathematics with Finance and Investment Banking degree. This means you can apply for a single four-year visa that covers the whole duration of your studies.

Foundation year

The foundation year is designed to equip you with the subject-specific and general study skills needed to cope with the demands of undergraduate study. Our high-quality teaching is geared towards the needs of students from a wide range of educational backgrounds.
