These span all areas of Mathematical Sciences: Applied Mathematics, Operational Research, Pure Mathematics, Statistics and Theoretical Physics. We have a number of full studentships available for UK/EU applicants (3 years of funding consisting of full fees, approximately £1,000 per year of travel money and a tax free stipend of approximately £13,500 per year). Non UK/EU applicants who have partial funding of their own may apply for a top-up studentship. We also offer "Mayflower" scholarships: successful applicants will be funded for four years and will be required to spend 25% of their time teaching undergraduates.
