Please note that your subjects will be taught on different campuses from Year 2 onwards, and so you may need to travel between campuses for classes In subsequent years, mathematics teaching will take place at the King's Buildings campus, often in the James Clerk Maxwell Building where the School of Mathematics is located. In Year 1, mathematics classes typically take place in the University's Central Area. The Informatics Student Support Team are based within the Informatics Teaching Organisation in Appleton Tower. When access to the campus is restricted they operate regular virtual meet-ups. InfPALS is run by year 2 and 3 students as small study groups in Appleton Tower. When access to the campus is restricted, InfBase operates as a virtual helpdesk. The InfBase drop-in helpdesk is located in Appleton Tower.
#Advanced engineering with higher math software
You will have access to computer laboratories and quality software support. The building provides purpose-built facilities and dedicated learning and teaching spaces, all located in the University's Central Area. You will be based in the School of Informatics, with lectures, tutorials and classes held in Appleton Tower. Entrepreneurship in the Mathematical Sciences.The mathematics course selection is influenced by the varied research interests in the School of Mathematics. You will have a variety of choices in selecting your topic, with a supervisor to guide you. Year 4 includes an individual honours project, where you will learn to develop a viable project starting from a given topic. This gives you the opportunity to build a portfolio according to your interests and career aspirations. You will choose from a large number of advanced courses in mathematics, artificial intelligence and computer science. These enable you to develop valuable employability skills such as:Ĭurrent optional mathematics courses include: The School of Mathematics' honours courses provide an excellent grounding in advanced mathematics and prepare you for the options available later in your programme.Įach course contains a skills component. Options offered in recent years include the following (and around 12 others): Your exact curriculum depends on the courses you choose. Your coursework assignments will typically provide you with experience in: Your studies will become more focused and you will have more choice in selecting specialised courses, according to your interests. Option courses include a variety of subjects from different schools across the University. You will develop a greater understanding of:įrom this year onwards you can use the MathsHub, a student-run social centre and work space. You will build on Year 1, covering more advanced programming and data structures, together with the related mathematics. Year 1 students also have the option of taking part in the peer-assisted learning scheme, MathPALS.
You will also receive support from the MathsBase, our popular walk-in help centre, and from our Mathematics Student Support Team. Pastoral support is offered by personal tutors and the Informatics Student Support Team. You will also be invited to join CompSoc, a tech society which offers a varied programme of events and ProgClub, to get more practical programming experience. InfBase is a drop-in helpdesk for year 1 and 2 students to get additional tutoring and support with their courses.
InfPALS is a peer support service for year 1 students focusing on material covered in courses but also general topics related to informatics. Students in the School of Informatics benefit from access to services created to support their learning, particularly in the beginning of their degree. You can also choose option courses from various schools across the University. Introduction to Data Science, where you will learn to collect and explore data, before using models and predictions in order to make rigorous conclusions. Some students will also take optional mathematics courses:įundamentals of Algebra and Calculus, an introductory course that provides extra preparation in key topics from advanced mathematics and supports your transition to university. Your mathematics courses build on your knowledge of pure mathematics and introduce you to the more rigorous ways of mathematical thinking required at university level. Together, these form the foundations for more in-depth study of computation in future years. This year also includes courses in the mathematics necessary for all areas of informatics. You will study how information can be represented and processed in computer systems, and learn fundamental techniques for managing data and solving problems using computer programs. You will be introduced to basic principles of programming and computation.
