students will carve out their career path with this integrated masters in mathematics with placement year from sheffield. building on core topics in year one, they will go into their second year with a whole menu of optional modules – from differential equations, statistical modelling and computer simulations to the mechanics of motion in fluids and solids.

some module options include more project work. this gives graduates the chance to put their mathematics skills into practice in different contexts and scenarios that they might encounter when they start work after graduation. a module on career development gives them the chance to find out about different career paths, learn about potential employers, write an impressive curriculum vitae (cv) and sell themselves at job interviews.
