Mathematics and Statistics play a fundamental role in many aspects of modern life, providing the underpinning language and tools for a wide variety of disciplines and technologies. Similarly, Computer Science is an advancing, dynamic field, which is essential to many areas of science, technology, and industry.
With research areas ranging from artificial intelligence to healthcare and from evolutionary algorithms to the future internet, studying Mathematics or Computer Science at university opens up the possibility of careers in a wide and varied field of industries.
Taking part in this subject activity strand will give you an insight into the experience of studying one of these subjects as well as exposing you to some of the world-leading research currently being undertaken at the University of Exeter.
