Mathematics is extremely diverse and our degrees enable you to specialise in the areas that are of particular interest to you. Whether your interest is more in the area of pure maths, applied maths, or operational research and statistics, we have a choice of degree scheme for you.

The School of Mathematics at Cardiff offers students a wide choice of degree schemes covering all aspects of mathematics, and it provides a sound training for a very broad range of careers. The following degree courses are offered: Mathematics (BSc) Mathematics (MMath) Mathematics and its Applications (BSc) Mathematics, Operational Research and Statistics (BSc) as well as a number of Joint Honours degree schemes which combine the study of Mathematics with another discipline. Students on the Mathematics and its Applications and the Mathematics, Operational Research and Statistics programmes have the opportunity to spend a year in industry in the 3rd year if they wish. Further details about Professional Training: A Year in Industry Mathematics modules are also available for study on degree schemes that allow
