This programme allows you to study these closely related subjects in equal depth.
In Years 1 and 2, you may study additional courses in other subjects. These may be in related areas such as informatics, or from the wide and varied range offered across the University, such as philosophy or languages.
Later in this programme, you can choose to:
* specialise in particular aspects of mathematics or physics
* examine the links between the two subjects
* or study a broad range of topics

This programme allows you to study these closely related subjects in equal depth. <br/><br/>In Years 1 and 2, you may study additional courses in other subjects. These may be in related areas such as informatics, or from the wide and varied range offered across the University, such as philosophy or languages. <br/><br/>Later in this programme, you can choose to: <br/><br/><br/>* specialise in particular aspects of mathematics or physics <br/><br/><br/>* examine the links between the two subjects <br/><br/><br/>* or study a broad range of topics <br/><br/><br/>You will split your time evenly between the two subjects over the entire programme. You will normally be able to switch to a single honours programme in either subject during your first two years. <br/><br/>**Second year entry** <br/><br/>This degree programme offers the option to start your studies in Year 2 and study an accelerated degree programme. This option shortens the length of your degree by a year, meaning the BSc degree takes three years instead of four.<br/><br/>On this route, you will focus on mathematics from the beginning, rather than studying a broader range of subjects in Years 1 and 2.
