Course Summary

There is no better place to gain an introduction to university-level mathematics than at Cambridge – a home to numerous Fields Medal winners. The Reach Cambridge Mathematics course provides students with the unique opportunity to engage with advanced concepts in mathematics in a rigorous academic setting.

By studying topics such as polynomials, differentiation, integration, matrices, probability, statistics, and game theory, they have a chance to enhance their theoretical understanding of the subject matter, build their confidence in their computational skills, and apply their abilities to real-world applications of maths in various fields. Students are also encouraged to think critically about equity in maths and science education around the world.

This course will encourage students to explore the diverse forms that mathematics can take and to think about both abstract theoretical approaches and practical applications. In our STEM courses, as a part of academic enrichment, students are also exposed to the latest scientific innovations, and to the research and development work that is carried out before a product/test is released into the market. With expert support from our experienced teaching staff, students will be able to realise their mathematical potential!
