Course content

This Mathematical Sciences Masters course will prepare you for the challenges of research in mathematics or statistics. Supported by relevant taught models and by academic supervisors, experts in your chosen specialist subject, you will undertake a year-long research project in which you will experience all stages of the research process.

You'll thrive as you study with our experienced and award-winning academic team.

You will gain deep knowledge of a chosen topic in mathematics or statistics and develop your research skills in project planning, reviewing literature, group discussions, research presentations and writing publications.

You will take two core taught modules, providing you with the underpinning theory to support your research work and how to appropriately disseminate your research to diverse audiences. You will then choose one module from each of the two option sets, broadly aligned to statistics, applied mathematics and pure mathematics.

This course benefits from the excellent facilities and equipment available in the School of Science and Technology.
