Mathematics

About this course

Mathematics is the study of structure, pattern, quantity, and change, and it is among the most fundamental of intellectual disciplines. It develops habits of mind that are rare and valuable: the capacity for abstract reasoning, the ability to construct rigorous proofs, the skill of identifying the essential structure of a problem and finding an elegant path through it. These capacities are in demand across science, technology, finance, data, and policy, and a mathematics degree is among the most durable and flexible foundations you can build. At Royal Holloway you will study a range of mathematical disciplines, developing both pure mathematical understanding and the applied and statistical methods that connect mathematics to the real world. The programme covers calculus, algebra, analysis, probability, statistics, numerical methods, and the application of mathematics to modelling and co
