Just wanted to add that out of top Universities in the UK for Mathematics these below have replied back saying that they accept Maths undergraduates from Open University into their MSc programmes (and of course into PhD later on):
Cambridge, Oxford, Warwick, Bristol
I haven't heard from...
I've had a look at the two obscurely named subjects from the list in the opening post and what they entail:
Year 2 - Pure Mathematics 60 Credits (Group Theory, Linear Algebra, Analysis)

Year 3 - Further Pure Mathematics 60 Credits (Number Theory...
Birkbeck doesn't have a Physics undergraduate programme, not even Physics and Mathematics. They only offer a Certificate in Higher Education.
I know they used to teach Physics, not sure what happened.
Thanks. So would you say the course structure I posted in my opening post is quality enough? I am asking because I'm 32 and I can't study full time, so I'm looking for either part-time courses or the distance learning one with Open. I was looking at Birkbeck but I've heard people who did their...
Well Open University doesn't offer any BSc Physics programmes, BSc Mathematics and Physics is the closest one. I was interested in a couple more universities and/or colleges around the area I live in, but none of them have their programmes accredited by the Institute of Mathematics and/or...
Thanks Dave, I always thought (according to what people say online) that theoretical Physics is mostly Mathematics and that one would be better off getting a BSc in Maths. I might be wrong, I don't know.
Hi,
Can someone explain what the appeal is of a joint subject degree such as BSc Mathematics and Physics? Logic dictates that you will not get proficient at either, so what are the benefits of such a programme? You would be stuck in the middle knowing a little bit of both but not enough of...
