Bachelor of Science in Mathematics with Computer Science with a Placement Year

Program Overview

Develop your mathematical knowledge, gain key computational skills, and join the growing technological industry with our BSc Mathematics with Computer Science with Placement degree.

Gain desirable and in-demand skills across two disciplines and develop a thorough grounding in computer science, backed up by your in-depth mathematical knowledge.

With learning roughly split into two-thirds mathematics and one-third computer science, this flexible, industry-relevant degree – located in the heart of the UK's digital technology sector – aims to prepare you for a wide range of careers.

Topics of study in mathematics

You'll join the University of Reading's Department of Mathematics and Statistics, where 98% of our research is world leading or internationally excellent and 100% of our research impact has been classed outstanding or very considerable (REF 2021, combining 4* and 3* submissions – Mathematical Sciences).

On this course, topics of study in your first two years will include:

calculus
linear algebra
differential equations
numerical analysis.

Your second year will feature a skills module, designed to improve your transferable skills and enhance your employability.

Support for the transition to university-level mathematics will be provided through small-group tutorials, seminars and events. You will also be encouraged to get involved with the Department's Staff Student Forums and the Student Teaching and Learning Group.

Your degree will meet the requirements of the Chartered Mathematician designation, awarded by the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (when followed by subsequent training and experience in employment in order to obtain equivalent competences to those specified by the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) for taught master's degrees).

Careers

Your mathematical and computational knowledge, combined with teamwork and presentation skills, will make you highly desirable to a range of employers.

As a mathematics graduate, you can choose to work as a mathematician or statistician for public sector organisations, such as health authorities or the Office for National Statistics, or areas of the private sector, including commerce and information technology. Furthermore, you can move into a range of related careers such as accountancy, financial analysis, engineering, modelling or actuarial work.

Furthermore, Reading is at the heart of the Thames Valley; the capital of the UK’s high-tech industry. Top multinational businesses, such as Microsoft, Oracle, Hewlett Packard, Intel, Fujitsu, Cisco and IBM, are located within a short distance of the University. Many of these companies visit the University in order to directly recruit our best graduates. Companies such as IBM and Ernst and Young even provide a mock assessment centre, in which they put you through the paces of their recruitment process and give you valuable feedback before you actually apply for their jobs.

Alternatively you can choose to further develop your skills by moving into research, teacher training or postgraduate studies.
