This BSc offers a thorough training in mathematics, with the chance to also become proficient in two or more modern languages. Choose from Arabic, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin or Spanish, with other languages also available in some years. With a compelling mix of linguistic and mathematical skills, you’ll be well equipped for careers in Europe or further afield.
During the first two years, you will develop a strong foundation in analysis, algebra, and mathematical methods, studying the same core mathematics modules as single-subject Mathematics students, taking 90 credits per year. Instead of Applied Mathematics modules, you will take 30 credits of modules in [modern languages](https://www.ucl.ac.uk/languages-international-education/language-courses/modules/modern-foreign-languages). Having laid the basic foundations, there is a wide range of options in both mathematics and languages in the third year.
Alongside the seven main languages, it is sometimes possible to provide study in other languages such as Dutch, Hebrew, Portuguese, Scandinavian and Slavic languages.
Language modules are offered at seven levels, from complete beginner’s level 1 to advanced level 4 and post A-level levels 5–7. Each student is expected to study at least one language to level 4, and you are encouraged to study other languages in addition.
The course is available as either a three-year BSc or a four-year MSci. The first two years are identical for both routes, and applicants are encouraged to apply initially for the MSci, as it is possible to transfer to the BSc at any point during the first three years.
