In year 2, you will continue to study a range of important mathematical topics in more depth. You will study some compulsory and choose some optional modules from the list below. Please note that we regularly review our teaching, so the choice of modules may change.
For students who did not study at XJTLU, modules MATH244 and MATH221 are compulsory, module MATH242 is optional, module MATH241 is not available. For students who studied at XJTLU, module MATH241 is compulsory; modules MATH244, MATH221, and MATH242 are not available.
During year 2, you will be asked to choose one of the following 4 pathways: Applied Mathematics (AM), Pure Mathematics (PM), Stochastics, Probability and Operational Research (SPOR) or Theoretical Physics (TP). Each pathway is a coherent collection of modules which cover a particular area of mathematics.
It will be important to consider which pathways you might be interested in following in year 3 when making your year 2 module choices. In particular, you should ensure that you have the necessary prerequisites:
- Applied Mathematics Pathway: MATH226 is recommended; further suitable modules include MATH228
- Pure Mathematics Pathway: MATH247 is strongly recommended, MATH242 is recommended
- Statistics, Probability and Operational Research Pathway: MATH254 is compulsory, MATH269 is recommended, further suitable modules include MATH226, MATH242 and MATH260
- Theoretical Physics Pathway: MATH228 is compulsory.
