Course summary

For thousands of years, maths and philosophy have occupied the same ground.

From Pythagoras to Bertrand Russell, both disciplines developed in their own ways, but remained naturally related to each other. Our contemporary maths and philosophy degree applies that marriage of logic and analytical reasoning to solve quantifiable problems, to question traditional assumptions and to develop clear and articulate understandings of complex issues.
