Postgraduate Study
The Mathematical Institute offers a range of postgraduate taught and research programmes. As a large Mathematics department, the research done here offers extensive opportunities for learning and collaboration, alongside comprehensive student support and social networking.
Our Courses
The Mathematical Institute offers five postgraduate taught (MSc) courses alongside postgraduate research (DPhil) opportunities. Three of our MSc courses are delivered in collaboration with other Departments: Computer Science, Physics, and Statistics. Our courses benefit from the strength of the Department's research and cover a wide range of areas.
We offer five MSc courses ranging from the Oxford Masters in Mathematical Sciences to more specific courses for Theoretical Physics, Mathematical Modelling and Computational Finance. Find out more details, including how to apply and key deadlines, as well as information about the different courses.
