This joint degree offers the opportunity to combine an appreciation of mathematical reasoning with an understanding of computing.
Mathematics is a fundamental intellectual tool in computing, but computing is increasingly used as a key component in mathematical problem-solving.
The course concentrates on areas where mathematics and computing are most relevant to each other, emphasising the bridges between theory and practice.
It offers opportunities for students to develop a deeper understanding of the mathematical foundations of their subject. The course helps students to acquire a familiarity with the mathematics of application areas where computers can solve otherwise intractable problems. It also gives mathematicians access to both a practical understanding of the use of computers and a deeper understanding of the limits on the use of computers in their own subject.

This course gives training in logical thought and expression, and is a good preparation for many careers.
Some Mathematics and Computer Science graduates go on to further study. Other recent graduates have secured positions as software and hardware professionals, in research and in finance and investment analysis, and include a product controller for an international bank, an actuarial consultant and an accountant.
Our colleges are at the heart of Oxford¿s reputation as one of the best universities in the world.
- At Oxford, everyone is a member of a college as well as their subject department(s) and the University. Students therefore have both the benefits of belonging to a large, renowned institution and to a small and friendly academic community. Each college or hall is made up of academic and support staff, and students. Colleges provide a safe, supportive environment leaving you free to focus on your studies, enjoy time with friends and make the most of the huge variety of opportunities.
- Each college has a unique character, but generally their facilities are similar. Each one, large or small, will have the following essential facilities:
- Porters¿ lodge (a staffed entrance and reception)
- Dining hall
- Lending library (often open 24/7 in term time)
- Student accommodation
- Tutors¿ teaching rooms
- Chapel and/or music rooms
- Laundry
- Green spaces
- Common room (known as the JCR).
A typical week
The typical weekly timetable for a student in Mathematics and Computer Science is similar to that for Computer Science or Mathematics.
Tutorials are usually 2-4 students with a tutor. Class sizes may vary depending on the options you choose. There would usually be around 8-15 students though classes for some of the more popular papers may be larger. Lectures may be up to 120 students.
As the course progresses there will be opportunity to undertake project work. There will be a group project in year two and, for those that choose to continue to year four, a large individual project or dissertation.
Throughout your time studying you will learn from leading maths and computer science specialists and researchers.

Course structure
Mathematics and Computer Science can be studied for three years, leading to the award of a BA degree, or for four years, leading to the award of Master of Mathematics and Computer Science (MMathCompSci).
Students do not need to choose between the three-year and four-year options when applying. All students apply for the four-year course, and then decide by the end of their third year whether they wish to continue to the fourth year. In order to proceed into the fourth year (part C), students will need to achieve a 2:1 or higher classification at the end of their third year.
