Postgraduate Admissions and Studies in Mathematics

The School of Mathematics offers opportunities for research in an enthusiastic and friendly environment, over an enormous variety of distinct fields.

We have a long and distinguished history in both teaching and research, and our graduates are influential in many spheres of activity worldwide. We are proud of the cosmopolitan variety of our own students and staff, and it is our aim to attract the very best mathematicians to Manchester whatever their country of origin.

While the School operates within a dynamic contemporary environment, we remain conscious of the important traditions created by the many celebrated mathematicians including Osborne Reynolds, James Lighthill, Louis Mordell, Alan Turing, Kurt Mahler and Paul Erdös who have all worked here.

The School of Mathematics continues to have an outstanding research reputation. We have distinguished research groups in Applied Mathematics including Numerical Analysis, in Pure Mathematics, in Mathematical Logic, and in Probability and Statistics.
