(PhD)Engineering Mathematics

Researchers in Engineering Mathematics carry out cutting-edge work in areas where mathematics is being applied to future challenges in engineering, industry and the life sciences. Through this area of study, fundamental theoretical and computational advances are made. There is also a strong tradition of interdisciplinary work, international collaboration and publication in leading research journals.

Research is supported by grants from public bodies, such as the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council, the Medical Research Council and the European Union, as well as from local government, national government and industry.

PhD applicants must hold/achieve a minimum of a merit at master's degree level (or international equivalent) in a relevant discipline. Applicants without a master's qualification may be considered on an exceptional basis, provided they hold a first class undergraduate degree. Please note, acceptance will also depend on readiness to pursue a research degree.

MSc by Research applicants must hold/achieve a minimum of an upper second class honours degree (or international equivalent) in a relevant discipline and demonstrate readiness to pursue a research degree.

See international equivalent qualifications on the International Office website.
