Subjects and pathways within this degree
Data Science
Work across data preparation, statistical reasoning and computational models. Useful analysis begins with a sound question and ends with an honest explanation of uncertainty, rather than a chart alone.
- Data Visualization
- Machine Learning
- Statistical Inference
Mathematics
Build depth in mathematical reasoning and structured problem solving. Proof, abstraction and applied techniques help learners work carefully with complex quantitative questions.
- Real Analysis
- Linear Algebra
- Topology
Data Analytics
Turn data into an explanation that a decision-maker can use. The central challenge is framing the right question, checking data quality and communicating what a result does and does not show.
- RAG Systems & Knowledge Engineering
- Pattern Recognition
Agentic AI
Study software systems that coordinate steps, tools and models to perform tasks. Designing such systems requires clear goals, evaluation and oversight so an automated workflow remains useful and predictable.
- Advanced NLP & Language Model Applications
- RAG Systems & Knowledge Engineering
Applied AI
Connect AI techniques with defined problems in products and services. A useful solution must be evaluated against the task it is meant to solve, including reliability and responsible use.
- Applied Deep Learning
- Natural Language Processing & Large Language Models
Generative AI
Explore systems that produce text, images or other content from learned patterns. Working effectively with these systems means understanding evaluation, retrieval, model behaviour and practical constraints.
- RAG Systems & Knowledge Engineering
- Large Language Models and Transformer Architectures
Computational Mathematics
Build depth in mathematical reasoning and structured problem solving. Proof, abstraction and applied techniques help learners work carefully with complex quantitative questions.
- Theory of Computation
- Optimal Control Theory
Applied Mathematics
Build depth in mathematical reasoning and structured problem solving. Proof, abstraction and applied techniques help learners work carefully with complex quantitative questions.
- Solid Mechanics
- Advanced Partial Differential Equations
Pure Mathematics
Build depth in mathematical reasoning and structured problem solving. Proof, abstraction and applied techniques help learners work carefully with complex quantitative questions.
- Number Theory
- Advanced Complex Analysis
