MASTER OF MATHEMATICS MMATH G103 4th Years
Normal Load = 120 CATS Maximum Load = 150 CATS

Students are required to take at least 90 CATS from the Core plus Lists A C and D and in their third and fourth combined at least 105 CATS from the Core plus Lists C and D

[For example a typical MMath student might satisfy this last requirement by including two List C modules in their offering for Year 3 and then including MA4K8 9 Project and three other List C modules in their offering for Year 4]

4th Year MMath students will not be allowed to take second modules except as unusual options and even then only with a valid reason for doing so

Direct link to MA4K8 9 Projects

Many List A Year 3 Mathematics modules have a support class timetabled in weeks 2 to 10 This is your opportunity to bring the examples you have been working on to compare progress with fellow students and where several people are stuck or confused by the same thing to get guidance from the graduate student in charge List C and D modules tend to have fewer students and support classes are less common; in these cases you are more than usually encouraged to discuss problems or concerns directly with the lecturer either during or after lectures or in office hours
For a full list of available modules see the relevant course regulation page

Maths Modules
Optional Modules - List A
As the Third option List A for G103 Mathematics (not including MA395 Third Year Essay nor MA397 Consolidation) with the exception of second modules (coded MA2xx for example)

Optional Modules - List B
As the Third Year option List B for G103 Mathematics with the exception of second modules (coded MA2xx for example)

Optional Modules - List C and D

Note Modules with an asterix (*) after them are deemed particularly suitable for 3rd MMath students to consider taking but this should be done taking the advice given on the Year 3 Regulations page on board

Interdisciplinary Modules (IATL and GSD)
Second third and fourth-year undergraduates from across the University faculties are now able to work together on one of IATL's 12-15 CAT interdisciplinary modules These modules are designed to help students grasp abstract and complex ideas from a range of subjects to synthesise these into a rounded intellectual and creative response to understand the symbiotic potential of traditionally distinct disciplines and to stimulate collaboration through group work and embodied learning

Maths students can enrol on these modules as an Unusual Option you can register for a maximum of TWO IATL modules but also be aware that on many numbers are limited and you need to register an interest before the end of the previous academic Contrary to this is GD305 Challenges of Climate Change form filling is not required for this option register in the regular way on MRM (this module is run by Global Sustainable Development from 2018 on)

The Language Centre offers academic modules in Arabic Chinese French German Japanese Russian and Spanish at a wide range of levels These modules are available for exam credit as unusual options to mathematicians in all Pick up a leaflet listing the modules from the Language Centre on the ground floor of the Humanities Building by the Central Library Full descriptions are available on request Note that you may only take one language module (as an Unusual Option) for credit in each Language modules are available as whole modules or smaller term long modules; both options are available to maths students These modules may carry 24 (12) or 30 (15) CATS and that is the credit you get We used to restrict maths students to 24 (12) if there was a choice but we no longer do this

Note 3rd and 4th students cannot take beginners level (level 1) Language modules

There is also an extensive and very popular programme of lifelong learning language classes provided by the centre to the local community with discounted fees for Warwick students Enrolment is from 9am on Wednesday of week 1 These classes do not count as credit towards your degree

The Transnational Resources Centre provides resources in the FAB building for all students registered with the Language Centre more information can be found here

A full module listing with descriptions is available on the Language Centre web pages

Important note for students who pre-register for Language Centre modules

It is essential that you confirm your module pre-registration by coming to the Language Centre as soon as you can during week one of the new academic If you do not confirm your registration your place on the module cannot be guaranteed If you decide during the summer NOT to study a language module and to change your registration details please have the courtesy to inform the Language Centre of the amendment

Information on modules can be found at the Language Centre page
