The Mathematics Research Theme

The University of Exeter EPSRC DTP PhD Studentships

The Mathematics Department seeks to provide a unique research environment, unconstrained by traditional disciplinary boundaries, in which our researchers can develop world-leading theory and methodology, and apply them successfully to cutting-edge problems in science, engineering and medicine. With over 60 permanent academic staff, we have internationally leading research groups in several areas of pure mathematics, applied mathematics and statistics: number theory, geometry and algebra; dynamical systems, control theory and analysis; fluid dynamics, astrophysical fluids and magnetic fields; statistical science and epidemiology; mathematical biology and medicine; and climate dynamics and renewable energy. Our reputation is reflected in the fact, for example, that we are one of only four UK universities to enjoy an academic partnership with the Met Office. The Department spans the University’s campuses at both Streatham, in Exeter, and Penryn, near Falmouth. We run several regular series of seminars and colloquia, and host visits from internationally leading scholars, providing opportunities for students and staff to meet and discuss the latest mathematical research.

We have a number of Mathematics research projects open for applications, but also welcome the submission of research proposals which fit one of the themes – Dynamical Systems; Control and Analysis; Fluid Dynamics; Astrophysical Fluids and Magnetic Fields; Mathematical Biology and Medicine; Number Theory; Geometry and
