International Foundation Year
If you don't have a suitable qualification for direct entry to a UK university, we can help with our Foundation year courses.
Our Mathematics BSc will train you in all branches of maths. You will develop a broad understanding across the key aspects of mathematics and enjoy the freedom to pursue your own interests as you progress. You may transfer to the four year Mathematics with a Year Abroad BSc pathway and spend your third year studying abroad before returning to complete a final year with us. This depends on you reaching a certain grade average and being accepted by a partner university.
“Alongside excellent teaching, King's provides you with plenty of opportunities to help you grow as a person and make yourself stand out amongst the pool of other graduates.”
Our BSc course contains modules in all branches of mathematics. In pure mathematics, we offer modules in algebra, analysis, geometry and number theory. In applied mathematics, we offer modules in complex systems, probability, statistics and theoretical physics. During your first year you will follow a fixed group of modules, but in your second and third years you will have more freedom to choose modules and tailor your degree to suit your interests.
Located on the north bank of the River Thames, the Strand Campus houses King's College London's arts and sciences faculties.
Please note that locations are determined by where each module is taught and may vary depending on the modules you study.
On this programme, you will have the opportunity to apply to study abroad, supported by the Study Abroad Tutor in your department and King’s Global Mobility Office. Together with partner organisations around the world, you will be supported in navigating your international, educational journey, developing new skills and competences and learning to apply different perspectives to your chosen discipline.
