Modes of delivery of the Masters in Mathematics/Applied Mathematics include lectures, laboratory classes, seminars and tutorials and allow students the opportunity to take part in project work.

If you are studying for the MSc you will take a total of 120 credits from a mixture of Level-4 Honours courses, Level-M courses and courses delivered by the Scottish Mathematical Sciences Training Centre (SMSTC).

You will take courses worth a minimum of 90 credits from Level-M courses and those delivered by the SMSTC. The remaining 30 credits may be chosen from final-year Level-H courses. The Level-M courses offered in a particular session will depend on student demand. Below are courses currently offered at these levels, but the options may vary from year to year.

Level-H courses (10 or 20 credits)
  • Algebraic & geometric topology
  • Continuum mechanics & elasticity
  • Differential geometry
  • Fluid mechanics
  • Functional analysis
  • Further complex analysis
  • Galois theory
  • Mathematical biology
  • Mathematical physics
  • Numerical methods
  • Number theory
  • Partial differential equations
  • Topics in algebra.
Level-M courses (20 credits)
  • Advanced algebraic & geometric topology
  • Advanced differential geometry & topology
  • Advanced functional analysis
  • Advanced methods in differential equations
  • Advanced numerical methods

The project titles are offered each year by academic staff and so change annually.

Additional information

  • To complete the MSc degree you must undertake a project worth 60 credits. This is a project chosen by you to investigate a challenging mathematical problem, where you will investigate the background to the project; identify relevant mathematical methodology, formulate and implement an appropriate analysis plan, present your work orally and in a dissertation.
  • Your project should demonstrate a clear and explicit grasp and understanding of the foundations and context of the ideas and show your incentive in action, both in terms of a creative framing of the work...
