Mathematics with Integrated Masters

Mathematics with Integrated Master’s at Keele offers a broad coverage of the key disciplines; pure mathematics, applied mathematics, and statistics. Pure mathematics focuses on mathematical proof, logical argument and abstraction, applied mathematics is concerned with methods and their application to modelling real-world problems, and statistics involves mathematical modelling of uncertainty and the analysis of data.

During your first year, you will build a strong foundation in mathematical thinking, exploring sets, functions and proofs, calculus, mathematical methods, algebra and differential equations. To deepen your learning, you will apply your knowledge to analyse real data sets, using the statistical software R. You will also start to develop key employability skills by working in teams on group projects, solving problems and communicating your findings in visual ways.

Throughout the programme you’ll apply your knowledge to real-world theories or experiences, providing context to your learning and strengthening your understanding. You’ll also have the chance to align your studies to your passions by choosing from a variety of optional modules.

In year two, you will strengthen your knowledge in pure and applied mathematics, probability and statistics, whilst expanding your skillset by learning the programming language Python.

Year three allows you to unleash your creativity and undertake a substantial piece of research, applying theoretical knowledge and problem-solving skills to a technical, software, research or business problem. Your research project is an excellent opportunity for you to draw together skills in experimental study design, critical interpretation of data, presentation and project management.
