Dr Jenny Power (Heriot-Watt University) will share some of the personal and unexpected lessons she learnt while completing her PhD. We’ll then discuss how a “perfect PhD student” doesn’t exist!
Join us for the launch party for our conference for women and non-binary people, OxWIM Day 2026, following Fridays@2. Coffee, tea and cake will be provided. Conference registration is currently open at www.oxwomeninmaths.co.uk
In our first event of term, we have a fun quiz competition to help you get to know other Mathematrix members and a free pizza lunch from White Rabbit! What more could you want?
We give an introduction to a rigorous renormalization group analysis of the sine-Gordon model with a focus on deriving the lowest-order beta function.
We are seeking to appoint a MSc Course Administrator to join our established Academic Administration to support one of our postgraduate programmes on a fixed term, full-time basis. This post presents a great opportunity to get involved in supporting a thriving academic department to achieve its vision of a workplace where all staff and students can achieve their full potential.
We are currently inviting applications for a Postdoctoral Research Associate to work with Professor Melanie Rupflin at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford. This is a 3-year, fixed-term position, funded by a research grant from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). The starting date of this position is flexible with an earliest start date of 01 July 2026.
