Fascinated by the figures? Motivated by maths? Maybe you could turn your interest into something more substantial - and one way to do that might be to try an Open University course.

Open Mathematics (MU120) - If you are new to university study and want to incorporate mathematical thinking into your everyday life take a look at this first level course.

Topics in the History of Mathematics (MA290) - From the Greek's invention of mathematical proofs through to the pioneering computer work of Charles Babbage, Topics in the History of Mathematics will provide you with an introduction to all the key moments in humankind's relationship with figures.

Number Theory and Mathematical Logic (M381) - More advanced than the courses above - this one is a level three course, and explores some of the areas featured in the Music of the Primes programme, as well as other problems and theories surrounding integers.

Analytic Number Theory I (M823)
