Year in industry
The placement year opportunity enables you to take what you've learned and apply it to real projects in a professional working environment. You will be supported by a placement tutor in securing a position and they will keep in touch during the year to see how you are getting on. The placement year can provide you with a source of income and can even lead to a job offer before you've graduated.
About mathematics at the University of Nottingham
The first year of the degree gives you a flavour of the different areas of mathematics on offer. You will cover topics spanning applied mathematics, pure mathematics, statistics and probability. You will work individually and in groups to solve real-world problems using advanced theories and techniques. It helps you to decide what you enjoy and if there are areas in which you want to specialise.
Later topics include:
abstract mathematical structures
ordinary and partial differential equations
probabilistic and statistical models
mathematical finance
quantum mechanics and relativity
Putting your maths into practice
There are lots of opportunities to apply your knowledge in a real-world context, by working together with other students and lecturers to tackle complex problems from industry and academia.
We work closely with our industry partners and alumni to ensure the course is matched to employer needs so you can enter the workplace confident in the skills and knowledge you've gained.
