BSc Mathematics with Business Management
About this course
Bachelor of Science in Mathematics with Business Management, a mathematics and business management degree focusing on quantitative methods and commercial strategy. Core topics include Programming, Data Analysis, Statistics, Mathematical Modelling, Financial Analysis, and Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. The programme spans three years, culminating in a substantial independent mathematical project. The first year introduces foundational principles through modules such as Introduction to Economics and Finance, Introduction to Management and Marketing, Mathematical Discovery: Problem Solving and Programming, Mathematical Foundations, Calculus and Linear Algebra, and Probability, Data and Statistics. The second year expands technical scope with study in International Economics and Financial Decision Making, Mathematical Challenge: Problem Solving and Programming in Business and Industry, Applied Linear Algebra and Optimisation, and Statistics. Final-year students study advanced topics and can select from options including Corporate Finance and Supply Chain Management, Strategic and Innovation Management, Data Science and Machine Learning, and Mathematics of Financial Derivatives.
