In taking your PhD in mathematics with the University of Brighton, you are joining a research culture that includes expertise in applied mathematics and statistics and which focuses on developing and applying theory and methods to help solve real world problems.A key focus of the current research in mathematics at the University of Brighton is its distinctive emphasis on the use of numerical and computational methods to solve problems in the biomedical sciences. In this, we offer dedicated supervisory support at a high-level, offering a rich research environment and encouraging opportunities to meet fellow students and established academics through a structure of research groups and our Doctoral College.There are diverse career options open to researchers with PhD-level backgrounds in mathematical sciences, with opportunities in industries such as computer science, engineering, finance and a range of technology businesses. Other PhD graduates from mathematics, statistics or operational research find careers within a research and educational setting by securing postdoctoral research positions or lecturing roles within various institutes in the UK or overseas.
The entry requirements for the PhD are:
a recognised Masters degree with a significant research component, for example MPhil from another university, or similar qualification which is regarded by the University of Brighton as being equivalent and relevant
or substantial appropriate research or professional experience at postgraduate level which resulted in published work, written reports or other appropriate evidence of accomplishment. An application made by someone with this experience will be considered on its merits and will normally require independent academic references
or, unless a school exercises their right to specify more stringent entry requirements, we may consider a first or upper second honours degree or other qualification which is regarded by the University of Brighton as being equivalent and relevant.
