Mathematics with Machine Learning

Careers Studying machine learning shows you’re committed to understanding the needs of the growing artificial intelligence sector. Forbes magazine predicts a 71% growth in jobs that need AI or machine learning skills by 2026, and research suggests that the UK will face a skill gap that your knowledge could help fill.

You’ll also graduate with a deep understanding of the mathematical principles, theories and methods that make machine learning possible - unlike other degrees in this field, our degree in Mathematics and Machine Learning is designed to give you the underlying understanding that will help you grasp future developments in the sector.

Additionally, your mathematical study will make you employable in sectors beyond machine learning, as you’ll be able to show your readiness for careers in finance, analysis, or anywhere that analytical problem-solving is a bonus.

Typical roles

You can expect to apply for roles like “machine learning engineer” or “machine learning scientist”; or, more broadly, titles like “data engineer” or “data scientist”. More generally, you’ll find your ability to build models that learn from data is in demand in sectors such as finance, education, retail, defence, government research.
