Mathematics with Gaelic

About this programme

Mathematics allows you to study a major universal language we all use that you can combine with Gaelic language studies. Mathematics is a powerful universal language used to describe situations in abstract terms. At the heart of manipulation with abstract mathematical objects are precision, logical thinking and reasoning skills. Studying and doing mathematics requires a high level of communication skills. Employers highly value these skills and the subsequent versatility of our graduates. The Gaelic Studies aspect of the degree programme can be studied at beginner, intermediate or advanced level to suit. Both the MA and BSc Mathematics degrees study the same core maths courses. The difference comes in the choices that students can make through their optional courses.
