After you've accepted your offer to study at York, we'll confirm which pre-sessional course you should apply to via You@York .
You can apply and send all your documentation online. You don’t need to complete your application all at once: you can start it, save it and finish it later.
In your personal statement, please tell us which of the three routes (Pure Mathematics, Mathematical Physics or Mathematical Biology) you'd like to follow. You should also state how the subjects you have studied previously relate to the modules you want to study on this course.
Apply for this course
You choose a pathway through this degree which concentrates either on pure mathematics or on applied mathematics. In each, you'll take modules which prepare you for research, aligned with our research groups . You'll also have the opportunity to take modules outside your route to broaden the scope of your study.
The pathway in Pure Mathematics centres on algebra and number theory with additional material in geometry and analysis .
The pathway in Applied Mathematics centres on mathematical physics and mathematical biology , which both have overlap with industrial and applied mathematics.
You'll undertake both a preparatory project and a dissertation in specialised subjects of your choice, with the aim of taking your research skills and understanding towards the frontiers of knowledge, with support and supervision from a dedicated member of staff.
You will study five option modules from one of two pathways. Example modules can be found below. Some option module combinations may not be possible. The options available to you will be confirmed after you begin your course.
Our modules may change to reflect the latest academic thinking and expertise of our staff, and in line with Department/School academic planning.
You will complete a preparatory project and a dissertation. You'll have a supervisor with expertise in your chosen field of research.
Every course at York is built on a distinctive set of learning outcomes. These will give you a clear understanding of what you will be able to accomplish at the end of the course and help you explain what you can offer employers. Our academics identify the knowledge, skills, and experiences you'll need upon graduation and then design the course to get you there.
You’ll work with world‐leading academics who’ll challenge you to think independently and excel in all that you do. Our approach to teaching will provide you with the knowledge, opportunities, and support you need to grow and succeed in a global workplace.
We use a wide range of teaching methods to suit different learning styles including:
Lectures are used to describe new concepts you will have to learn and problems classes put them into practice. Seminars are small, interactive sessions which allow us to focus on your individual needs. As part of the online lectures, you will also be able to access a wide range of short videos discussing topics covered in your lectures. These bite-sized clips will come with a set of notes to help reinforce your knowledge on the given topic.
While you're working on your project and your dissertation you'll have regular meetings with an academic supervisor who can offer advice and support. We aim to give you a supervisor with specialist knowledge of the area you're investigating.
You will be based in the Department of Mathematics in the Ian Wand Building on Campus East. Most of your small group teaching and larger classes will take place in the Ian Wand Building or nearby on Campus East.
Our beautiful green campus offers a student-friendly setting in which to live and study, within easy reach of the action in the city centre. It's easy to get around campus - everything is within walking or pedalling distance, or you can always use the fast and frequent bus service.
