About MST209

MST209 is the main Level 2 module in applied mathematics.
It follows on from Using Mathematics (MST121) and Exploring Mathematics (MS221), and is a recommended prerequisite for Level 3 applied mathematics, physics and engineering courses.

The purpose of this website is to help ensure that you are ready to start studying MST209 and also to give you further information about the associated 10-credit residential module Mathematical modelling (MSXR209).

It is important that you realize that you need an appropriate mathematical background in order to study MST209 sucessfully. To help you decide, we have designed a Diagnostic Quiz which we strongly encourage you to try if you are thinking of studying this module.
