PhD Mathematical Sciences - Pure Mathematics

University of Southampton

You'll be supported by supervisors who are international experts in their field, spanning pure and applied mathematics, statistics and operational research. They'll provide guidance and also direct you to further in-depth training. We offer a wide range of training opportunities. You'll have access to specialised in-house post-graduate courses and three National Postgraduate Training Networks in Applied and Pure Mathematics (MAGIC), Operational Research (NATCOR) and Statistics (APTS). You’ll be encouraged to participate in research seminars and discussion and attend conferences. You'll have a personal computer, a desk in a shared office and a conference attendance allowance. Our academics have direct contact with potential employers. Our postgraduate students are highly sought after by other universities, business and industry, NGOs and governments worldwide. We're a team of 30 academics and postgraduate students, and our global network includes groups in the UK, the EU, North America and East Asia. We are internationally recognised as research leaders in several fields, including geometric group theory, non-commutative geometry and analysis, algebraic topology and applied topology.
