PhD with Integrated Study in Mathematics

We’re internationally renowned for our excellent network of collaborations and strengths spanning the full breadth of pure and applied mathematics, operational research and statistics. Primarily, but not exclusively, in the first years of your iPhD, you’ll strengthen your background with research-level courses, building a foundation for your future research.

Supervisors who are international experts in their field provide further in-depth training, supported by participation in research seminars and discussion. A conference attendance allowance is also available. Our postgraduates are highly sought after by other universities, businesses, NGOs and governments worldwide.

You’ll have access to all modules available at the University, to specialised, in-house postgraduate courses and to three national postgraduate training networks in applied and pure mathematics (MAGIC), operational research (NATCOR) and statistics (APTS).
