Course summary

Having completed a research preparation masters degree and agreed your research topic with a supervisor, you will continue your work exploring themes from our wide range of research expertise. As a school we focus on projects across pure and applied mathematics, mathematical physics and statistics. Some current project themes cover research in communications, sustainable materials and healthcare. Example projects that our researchers are working on include:

• Analysis of thin feromagnetic films

• The statistics of nodal sets in wavefunctions

• Acceleration, black holes and thermality in quantum field theory

• Modelling DNA chain dynamics

• Mathematical modelling of macromolecular capillary permeability

• Geometric integration of stochastic differential equations

• Language dynamics in networks

• paid work placements

• training courses

• public engagement opportunities
