Mathematics
Students NOT taking Statistics and Operations Research as one of the main subjects must take study-unit SOR1110.Students taking Statistics and Operations Research as one of the main subjects, who do NOT have Applied Mathematics at Intermediate Level must take study-unit MAT1611. Students taking Statistics and Operations Research as one of the main subjects and have Intermediate Applied Mathematics and Physics at Advanced Level must choose MAT1611.Other students must register for 4 ECTS credits from the electives offered during the year; either study-unit MAT1611, or study-units PHY1020 and PHY1030. Students are to check any present corresponding notes for each study-unit.
