Mathematical Sciences and Computer Sciences
The Mathematical Sciences group forms a strong component within the College and makes a substantial contribution to the Faculty of Mathematical Sciences in the University. We aim to take 12 to 15 students a year in Mathematics, the three joint courses and Computer Science, together. We welcome applications for all Mathematical Science courses within the University, Mathematics, Joint Schools (Mathematics with Computer Science, Philosophy or Statistics), and Computer Science.
We aim to take students with the most potential, regardless of their backgrounds. Many students applying for Mathematics and the Joint Schools have double Mathematics at A level, but every year we take some applicants who have either single A level or a single A level and AS level in Further Mathematics (the University puts on a special pre-sessional course to help students catch up). We also welcome those with other types of qualification, including the IB and Scottish Highers. We are looking for ability, enthusiasm and determination. A good number of our students proceed to take higher research degrees.
