Mathematics

The following information introduces our offer in this curriculum area and is not exhaustive. It is organised into two sections: courses, modules and qualifications, and free materials on OpenLearn. 

Courses, modules and qualifications

We have a range of maths qualifications at undergraduate and postgraduate level which provide options for initial subject knowledge development for entry into teacher education, and also for ongoing professional learning. Of particular interest may be our:​

• BSc (Honours) Mathematics and Statistics degree
• BSc (Honours) Mathematics and its Learning degree
• MSc in Mathematics degree
• Modules from these qualifications taken as standalone courses
• Open Masters degree, where maths modules can be combined as part of that

If you intend to use these modules to support entry to Initial Teacher Education or to expand your General Teaching Council for Scotland registration to teach a different subject, please check the most recent GTCS rules and regulations about level of study and amount of study needed. Further guidance on this is available on our Becoming a Teacher webpage.

Free OpenLearn materials

We have a wide range of free courses to support subject knowledge development, brought together on OpenLearn. Use the online mathematics discovery centre as a starting point to find out more.
