Summary
This course is for year 12 students from state-funded schools, academies and colleges who are interested in applying to study Mathematics or Mathematical Sciences at University. We work with Oxford University, Imperial College, Durham University, University of Bath, University of Manchester and Warwick University to provide this course. This is a course for students who wish to improve their mathematical problem-solving skills in preparation for future studies. Please note that the course is not suitable for GCSE students.
Students applying for places to study Mathematics or Computer Science courses (including joint honours) at Oxford University will be required to sit the Mathematics Admission Test (MAT). For Imperial College, any Mathematics applicants will be required to sit the MAT or STEP, and Computer Science applicants will need to sit the TMUA. Warwick University strongly encourages any university tests and offers reduced rates if students are successful.
The course will have three face-to-face study days across six venues. The dates and venues for 2024 are:
University of Oxford: 22nd June, 13th July and 28th September 2024 | Imperial College, London: 15th June, 6th July and 21st September 2024 |
