Ignite your passion for the beauty and practicality of mathematics, whilst building a distinctive expertise to help you stand out from the crowd. From mathematical concepts to specialist topics in group theory, you’ll deepen your learning, gaining the advanced practical, technical, research and employability skills to pursue PhD study or gain a competitive edge in the graduate employment market.<br/><br/>**Why choose this course?** <br/><br/><br/>- Accredited by the Institute of Mathematics & its Applications<br/><br/><br/>- 15th in England for Mathematics, Guardian University Guide 2025 <br/><br/><br/>- Mathematics at Keele is Top 10 in the UK for student positivity* NSS 2024 (Broad-based universities) *based on overall student satisfaction, which is an average score across 27 questions asked in the NSS  <br/><br/><br/>- Gain the master’s level practical, technical and research skills to accelerate your career<br/><br/><br/>- Learn from internationally leading figures in their research areas <br/><br/><br/>Mathematics with Integrated Master’s at Keele offers a broad coverage of the key disciplines; pure mathematics, applied mathematics, and statistics. Pure mathematics focuses on mathematical proof, logical argument and abstraction, applied mathematics is concerned with methods and their application to modelling real-world problems, and statistics involves mathematical modelling of uncertainty and the analysis of data.<br/><br/>During your first year, you will build a strong foundation in mathematical thinking, exploring sets, functions and proofs, calculus, mathematical methods, algebra and differential equations. To deepen your learning, you will apply your knowledge to analyse real data sets, using the statistical software R. You will also start to develop key employability skills by working in teams on group projects, solving problems and communicating your findings in visual ways. <br/><br/>Throughout the programme you’ll apply your knowledge to real-world theories or experiences, providing context to your learning and strengthening your understanding. You’ll also have the chance to align your studies to your passions by choosing from a variety of optional modules. <br/><br/>In year two, you will strengthen your knowledge in pure and applied mathematics, probability and statistics, whilst expanding your skillset by learning the programming language Python. <br/><br/>Year three allows you to unleash your creativity and undertake a substantial piece of research, applying theoretical knowledge and problem-solving skills to a technical, software, research or business problem. Your research project is an excellent opportunity for you to draw together skills in experimental study design, critical interpretation of data, presentation and project management.  <br/><br/>**About Keele**<br/><br/>Keele University was established in 1949 by the former Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University.
