Overview

This PhD in Mathematics course allows you to use theoretical, applied, and computational research methods to solve a wide range of problems ranging from theoretical to the applied sector. Our academics have extensive experience and knowledge to support you throughout the course.

The focus of the program is on substantial research on core areas of mathematics leading to a PhD dissertation, allowing you to develop your skills in presenting and teaching mathematics and its applications. The doctoral offers an opportunity for you to obtain high level research skills and significantly deepen your knowledge in Mathematics.

We invite applications for doctoral research in various mathematics topic areas, including:

• Nonlinear dynamics and chaos
• Applications of mathematics in electrical or civil engineering
• Educational mathematics
• Geometry
• Gauge theory
• Special geometries with torsion
• Exceptional holonomy
• Stochastic differential equations and modelling
• Financial mathematics

Career

A PhD degree in Mathematics – the highest academic qualification, based on the advanced study and independent research, opens an array of career opportunities both in academia and within the professional sector.

Many students go on to pursue an academic career, following the PhD with a postdoctoral study, then a fellowship or lectureship. Others pursue professional careers in industry, engineering, government, education, finance, banking, or actuarial science sectors.

During your PhD, you will also be learning transferable core skills that apply to jobs both in and out of academia, including:

• written and oral communication
• research and information management
• public speaking
• project management
• leadership
• critical thinking
• collaboration
• analysis and problem solving
• negotiation

By the end of your research degree, you will be able to articulately apply these skills to enhance your career path.
