Course summary

The Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Algebra, Geometry and Quantum Fields aims to train graduate students to research excellence in diverse disciplines, such as:

  • pure mathematics
  • mathematical and theoretical physics, including:
  • algebra
  • geometry
  • topology
  • quantum field theory
  • gauge theory
  • gravity
Students on this programme will enrol onto a degree called "Algebra, Geometry and Mathematical Physics". You will navigate the many vibrant interfaces among these disciplines, learning to communicate ideas fluently across different areas of mathematics and physics, and harnessing the power of interfaces to advance research. You will incorporate advanced computing methods in your research and will have the opportunity to work with some of our 30+ partners in the international academic community, industry, and the third sector. You will train together in cohorts, combining multiple disciplines and backgrounds. You will be supported to work on short group projects and to participate in a variety of activities to enhance your mathematical/scientific breadth and communication skills.
