Study Abroad Program at University of the West of England

Study Abroad Program
University of the West of England

Department of Mathematics and Statistics

Bristol, England

Program Details
Course details for Mathematics Majors Course details for Statistics and Operation Research Majors Education in England is structured differently than in the US. Students in England enter university with a specific major and will only take courses in that major. For this reason, the class schedules at UWE do not typically allow the flexibility of taking courses outside your major. A typical undergraduate education in England lasts for three years instead of four. The expectation is that you would spend your junior year in England. This would mean that you have had a broad enough background in introductory math and stats courses to succeed in their second year courses. The courses at UWE last for the entire year so it is not possible to only attend for a semester.
