Applied mathematics makes essential contributions to the biological, information and physical sciences, economics, engineering and finance, but can also be applied to communications, linguistics and genetics. From studying climate change, preventing structural damage due to earthquakes, to analysing neuronal dynamics in the brain – Applied mathematics has a role to play. You will gain valuable skills that bring you to the frontiers of knowledge and the thrill of discovery that will provide you with the satisfaction of seeing mathematics at work.

Postgraduate study in Applied Mathematics focuses on mathematical and computational models to formulate and solve real-world problems from a variety of areas within science and technology.
From analysing the most efficient way to schedule airline routes between cities, to the effects and safety of new drugs, applied maths is a good foundation to apply alongside many other sciences.
You will learn how to build mathematical models, how to formulate mathematical ideas for useful modeling, alongside learning about the solutions of models.

Areas of research interests open to exploration include:
- Advanced numerical analysis
- Advanced partial differential equations
- Applied differential equations
- Dynamical systems
- Linear systems inverse problems
- Mathematical biology
