Year 3
In Mathematics, you will be able to choose from a wide range of optional modules. In Accounting, you will study theoretical and practical aspects of the key investment questions faced by firms and by individuals.
The first year of this programme has introduced me to fascinating areas of mathematics, like cryptography and combinatorics. As well as teaching new subjects, the programme demonstrates a whole new approach to what has been previously learnt during A-level study. Some of these new approaches are more efficient, and the other, less efficient, approaches further develop understanding of the mathematics behind the problems.
