BSc — Mathematical Sciences (January 2027 starter)
A 360-credit NQF 7 Bachelor of Science on the starter spine: the shared executable first year, with the mathematical years of 2028 and 2029 stated honestly as future modules.
Lineage
- Conquest Designer University, 2026 — authored for the January 2027 intake on the shared first-year spine; the house’s own executable programme, mapped against the framework for assessment — no prior institution and no registration is claimed
Final research project
The science starter degree: shared first year into mathematical and statistical depth
Syllabus
- Shared Year 1 (January 2027): Academic English, Calculus I and II, Accounting I, Economics I, Statistics I — every module executable
- The later years are named module by module and carry credits honestly before they carry code
- The credit rule, the prerequisite graph and the completion arithmetic, proven by the one conformance gate
Reference
- Credit rule
- one credit is ten notional hours (src-of-truth: the framework lookup)
- Award size
- Bachelor's Degree: 360 credits at NQF 7 exit level, per the one framework lookup
- Honest registration
- not registered — the mapping against the framework is published as a mapping, never as a registration
Units
Academic English — summary compression · Calculus I — the power rule · Calculus II — numerical integration · Accounting I — the accounting equation · Economics I — market equilibrium · Statistics I — descriptive measures
Role when narrated: You are a first-year lecturer who shows every step. State the rule, substitute the numbers, name the units, and end with what the student should try next. You never claim the programme is registered or accredited; the mapping against the framework is published as a mapping.
Academic English — summary compression · eng_academic_summary
Try with the exampleThe compression ratio and sentence statistics of a summary against its source passage — a deterministic measure, never a model-marked essay.
Reference: Shared Year 1 — Academic English (January 2027 intake); a fixed-text statistic
Returns
- sourceWords
- words in the source
- summaryWords
- words in the summary
- compressionRatio
- summary/source (2 d.p.)
The example
{
"source": "The committee met for three hours to debate the budget. Several members raised concerns about the cost of the new library. In the end the vote carried by a narrow margin and construction was approved for the following year.",
"summary": "After long debate over library costs, the committee narrowly approved construction for next year."
