Accessibility
We make all our qualifications as accessible as possible and have a comprehensive range of services to support all our students. The BSc (Honours) Mathematics uses a variety of study materials and has the following elements:
printed material
online material, including websites, audio/video media clips, and interactive activities
using mathematical and scientific expressions, notations and associated techniques
using and producing diagrams and screenshots
small amounts of practical work and other activities, such as group work with other students on some modules, writing short reports or preparing presentations
using specialist software
face-to-face tutorials/day schools and/or online tutorials
continuous and end-of-module assessment in the form of short and long answer questions, and in most cases an examination
