Many of our graduates go on to successful careers in business and finance and we have recently launched a new degree, Mathematics with Business. Mathematics has a key role to play in many aspects of modern business. The degree programme combines the development of mathematical concepts and advanced techniques with the application of this mathematic expertise to the business world. It is offered in association with Norwich Business School which has a first class reputation for teaching and for the development of professional business skills. This course gives you the opportunity to study with leading experts in both Mathematics and Business, whilst also developing your language and communication skills in a prestigious UK university.
There are a range of statistics options available, particularly relevant to a career in business. Understanding of the underlying theory of statistics gives our graduates a head start in many different fields of business, and recent graduates have become accountants and actuaries.
In the Business component of the programme, various strands of study are possible: Finance, Economics, Management, Accountancy and Actuarial Science. You can choose to focus on one specific field of business study, or to get a good grounding in a wider range of fields.
