Overview

This programme offers you the opportunity to specialise in a broad range of areas across pure and applied mathematics and theoretical physics. Mathematics is a beautiful and diverse subject. It underpins a wide range of disciplines, from physical sciences to social science, from biology to business and finance. The further your study of mathematics progresses, the more fascinating it becomes. The University of Liverpool has a large Mathematical Sciences department with highly qualified staff, a first-class reputation in teaching and research, and a friendly, supportive environment. We use mixed approaches to teaching and assessment, taking the best from traditional lectures, tutorials and assignments, and modern methods such as interactive learning sessions, video content and online assessment. Our programmes are designed with the needs of employers in mind to give you a solid foundation from which you may take your career in whatever direction you choose. Our Mathematical Sciences MSc programme allows students to specialise in a broad range of areas across pure and applied mathematics and theoretical physics. It includes project work worth 105 credits, helping students develop independent working and research skills, highly valued by employers and essential for gaining entry to PhD programmes. The programme is suitable for graduates in mathematics and closely related subjects, who are seeking the opportunity to further develop their understanding of the subject. It is available to both full-and part-time students. Students can choose from a range of taught modules in the following areas: The range of possibilities grows even wider when you reach the dissertation modules, as you then have the opportunity to work with one of the expert supervisors in our department, on the mathematical topic that interests you the most.
