BSc Mathematics with Data Science
City St George's, University of London
About this course
The BSc in Mathematics with Data Science is an undergraduate mathematics degree focused on statistical methods, computational techniques, and analytical problem-solving. Core topics include Programming, Data Analysis, Statistics, Mathematical Modelling, Critical & Analytical Thinking, and Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. Students can choose to undertake an optional paid one-year work placement between the second and final years. The first year covers core mathematical foundations through modules such as Functions, Vectors and Calculus 1, Algebra, Linear Algebra, Introduction to Probability and Statistics, and Introduction to Modelling. The second year progresses to advanced methods with Real Analysis, Vector Calculus, Applied Mathematics, and Programming and Data Science for the Professions. The final year incorporates specialised technical studies through compulsory and advanced modules including Techniques for Data Science, Principles of Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Stochastic Models, and a group project.
