About the course

The financial world relies on mathematics and expertise in analytical thinking and problem solving. This course is designed for students who want to:

　　understand more about how the stock markets work

　　learn the principles of business and finance

　　This accredited course enables you to study mathematics whilst learning key financial principles. The course is run jointly with Nottingham University Business School. Approximately 75% of the teaching is mathematics, the remainder includes finance and business economics modules.

　　Our research feeds into our teaching. This means we can offer an extensive choice of core and optional modules. The compulsory group project module in the third year gives you the chance to work on specific projects tackled through workshops and student-led group activities.

　　About mathematics at the University of Nottingham

　　You will study core first-year mathematics modules in topics such as calculus, probability and statistics. This will develop your skills in problem solving and analytical thinking. The year will include an introduction to business and finance, including accounting and insurance.

　　As you progress to later years of your degree, you will have more flexibility to choose topics from optional modules. In mathematics, you can explore advanced topics in mathematical finance and modelling, whilst developing expertise in finance and risk management in the Business School.

　　In your final year, you do a compulsory mathematics group project. This gives you the chance to work collaboratively on a substantial financial mathematics problem. You'll be supervised by expert teaching staff. This is an excellent opportunity to develop your report-writing and team-working skills. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
