Mathematics with Management Studies MSci

About

Course overview

In the first two years you will receive a thorough grounding in pure mathematics and mathematical methods following the same modules as the single-subject Mathematics students, taking 3.0 credits of pure mathematics/mathematical methods each year. In place of the Applied Mathematics modules you will take two half-credit modules in management studies each year. Having laid the basic foundations there is a wide range of options in both mathematics and management studies in the third and fourth years. You will undertake a major project in your fourth year, which will include a substantial piece of written work and a presentation.

This programme is offered as a three-year BSc or a four-year MSci degree. The first two years of the programme are identical, and students are advised to apply for the MSci degree in the first instance, as it is possible to transfer to the BSc during the first three years.

What this course will give you

All of the modules given by the UCL School of Management are validated by external experts from the private, public and charitable sectors.

Many of our graduates choose to build their management knowledge and experience by taking a further management qualification, such as the MBA (Master of Business Administration).

Internationally renowned (6th in the UK, QS World University Rankings by Subject 2023: Mathematics), UCL Mathematics is home to world-leading researchers in a wide range of fields, especially geometry, spectral theory, numerical analysis, number theory, fluid dynamics and mathematical modelling.

Three of the six British winners of the Fields medal (the mathematician's equivalent of the Nobel Prize) have associations with the department.

This MSci offers an additional year of study on top of the equivalent BSc, during which students have the opportunity to specialise further by taking more advanced modules, and undertaking a major project. No previous knowledge of management studies is required.

Career

The foundation of your career

A mathematics degree is highly valued by employers due to the skills in logical thinking, analysis, problem-solving and, of course, numeracy, that it develops.

The knowledge and skills gained on the programme can also be used in fields including forecasting, risk analysis and trading; financial services, such as accountancy, banking and insurance; and scientific research, information technology and industry.

This programme prepares you to continue in further study such as a Master's degree, or a PGCE qualification.

Employability

We aim to develop your skills in mathematical reasoning, problem-solving and accurate mathematical manipulation. You will also learn to handle abstract concepts and to think critically, argue logically and express yourself clearly.
