Course summary

What this course is about

UCAS code: G100

Here's what University of Oxford says about its Mathematic / Mathematics and Statistics course.

In applied mathematics we use mathematics to explain phenomena that occur in the real world. You can learn how a leopard gets its spots, explore quantum theory and relativity, or study the mathematics of stock markets. The Oxford Mathematics degree will encourage you to ask questions and find solutions for yourself. We will begin by teaching you careful definitions so that you can construct theorems and proofs. Above all, mathematics is a logical subject, and you will need to think mathematically, arguing clearly and concisely as you solve problems. For some of you, this way of thinking or solving problems will be your goal. Others will want to see what else can be discovered. Either way, it is a subject to be enjoyed.

It has been fine. Oxford is expensive, and my college is bad for rent and food prices.

Support is available if you need it, although is not always the best. I have had mixed experiences, and had a particularly bad experience when seeking financial support/advice in which an advisor offered unfortunately completely out of touch advice. Other times, people have been extremely helpful.

Great facilities although the sports centre is a little far. The libraries here are the highlight to me.

The course had a good level of choice and was very indepth. I felt that the 4th year project was lacking, and would have preferred it be a more prominent part of the degree especially considering most people in this course are interested in further research after graduating. I don't feel particularl...
