Graduates work in a number of areas, depending on their degree subject. Each degree equips students with a particular skillset that may be applied to one or more industries.
Many of our Mathematics, Physics and Computer Science graduates work in Computing, Risk, Finance & Analytics.
Students must select a total of 12 modules (60 credits) in Stage 1 with a minimum of 11 modules taken from core and option modules. Core and option modules are to be taken as directed. Elective modules are registered in the Spring trimester.
