Mathematicians' ability to reason logically, develop quantitative models and extract information from data means their skillset is valued everywhere. A degree in Mathematics, therefore, could potentially open the door to a variety of careers, with significant earning potential.

Our degree focuses on the mathematics you'll need to solve real-world problems, and you’ll hone your technical skills via modules which see you work in groups.

This MMath course follows the same first three years of teaching as the BSc degree, with an additional year at Master's level. You can transfer from the BSc to MMath, provided you achieve the correct grades.

**Why Study Mathematics MMath at University of Huddersfield?**
After your second year on this MMath mathematics degree, you' can undertake a placement year in industry. Our dedicated Placement Unit has links with companies in the UK, Europe and beyond, to help you secure a placement that complements your interests within mathematics.

The integrated Master's year adds both breadth and depth to the BSc and covers topics such as data analytics, Artificial Intelligence (AI), engineering applications, and robotics.

If you’re keen to enrol onto a Master’s in Mathematics – due to a passion for modelling, statistics, computing, equations, big data, to name just a handful – you’ll be supported to achieve your very best.

Upon graduation, you may consider roles as, chartered accountant, data analyst, and data scientist, in a wide range of sectors including finance, aerospace, energy, pharmaceutical, and environmental.

Post-six month graduation stats:

This is from the Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education Survey, based on responses from graduates who studied the same subject area here.

It offers a snapshot of what grads went on to do six months later, what they were earning on average, and whether they felt their degree helped them obtain a 'graduate role'. We calculate a mean rating to indicate if this is high, medium or low compared to other universities.

The Longitudinal Educational Outcomes dataset combines HRMC earnings data with student records from the Higher Education Statistics Agency.

While there are lots of factors at play when it comes to your future earnings, use this as a rough timeline of what graduates in this subject area were earning on average one, three and five years later. Can you see a steady increase in salary, or did grads need some experience under their belt before seeing a nice bump up in their pay packet?
