Bachelor of Mathematics

The Cambridge Mathematics course is often considered to be the most demanding undergraduate Mathematics course available in Britain and, correspondingly, one of the most rewarding.

Two other aspects of the course that our students greatly appreciate are its flexibility and the breadth of subjects offered. The amount of choice increases each year and after Year 1 the workload isn’t fixed so you can choose the number of options you study to suit your own work pattern. Some students take as many options as they can; others take fewer and study them very thoroughly.

Dr Clive Wells is the College’s Director of Studies for Mathematics BA and MASt.

Hughes Hall is one of the 31 Colleges of the 800-year-old University of Cambridge, with a unique character that comes directly from our members. We’re one of just four Cambridge Colleges dedicated to undergraduates aged 21 and over and postgraduates. That gives Hughes Hall a very different feel from colleges with younger students.

We’re the second-largest College for postgraduates, but we also have around 100 undergraduates and medical students. Overall, we have around 700 student members and 200 senior members.
