YEAR 1:

In Further Pure Mathematics you will study Summation of series, Mathematical induction, Roots of polynomial equations, Complex numbers and Matrices. You will also complete 2 applied modules: one in Mechanics and one in Decision Mathematics. Mechanics involves the study of force as a vector, equilibrium of a particle, kinematics of motion in a straight line, Newton’s laws of motion and linear momentum. Decision Mathematics covers Game theory, flows in a network, matching and allocation problems, critical path analysis and dynamic programming.

You will study Further Pure 2 which will build upon the Core Maths covered at A level and the techniques from year 1. You will also study 2 applied modules from Statistics 2, Statistics 3 and Mechanics 2.
