牛津炙手可熱的科目——數學與統計系

行業前景佳  出路廣泛

21 世紀可謂是科技與數字主宰,「大數據」一詞亦經常在各個行業被提及,皆因各行業都需要人才協助分析市場趨勢。如此優勢下,數學統計等數理科目的畢業生競爭力便變得十分強,特別是名校畢業生,他們向來都得到金融機構如投資銀行(投行)、各大科技巨頭等商業龍頭青睞,同學畢業後可任職金融分析師、投行管理層及大學講師等高薪職位。

 

Flexible progression model

同學可於四年制課程中選擇修畢第三年後畢業,取得數學及統計文學士學位;或完成第四年課程取得Masters of Mathematics(數學碩士學位)

 

為什麼不是劍橋,而是牛津?

牛劍兩校經常被比較,而牛津大學的數學及統計學是統計領域的先驅。 牛津大學數學及統計學課程非常深入廣泛。課程除了能學到許多實用技能外,更全方位地涵蓋了現代統計學的知識所需。牛津大學的統計學比劍橋強,因為牛津大學有側重發展統計學領域。目前牛津大學與美國史丹福大學是世界唯二最重要的統計學研究中心。

牛津大學的數學與統計系錄取率僅為5%,比起劍橋同類型科目競爭更激烈,可見其獨特和稀缺之處。

 

牛津數學與統計學入學要求為何?

A-Level:A*A*A(必須包含數學並最低達到A*或進階數學A級)。

IB:39,HL 776(HL必須包含數學科7分)。
