Applied Mathematics MSc

Using applied mathematics, research, and specialist software, you will solve real-world problems arising in sectors such as finance, energy, engineering, biomedical research, scientific research, and the pharmaceutical industry. From solving problems laying pipe systems in our oceans, optimizing a portfolio of Wall Street stocks, or understanding the hidden dynamics of diseases like cancer or diabetes, mathematics plays a role in solving practical problems in a wide range of industries. You will be able to choose from a variety of modules focused on a number of applied mathematics directions (specialized towards biology, medicine, ecology, economics, and finance), allowing you to shape your study and expand your perspective. Our weekly Mathematics Seminar Programme allows you to hear from renowned scientists covering everything from mathematical biology to numerical analysis and scientific computing.

Students should have a 2.2 Honours BSc or above (or a suitable qualification) in a relevant mathematical discipline.
