Grad Study Adverts

The EPSRC Doctoral Studentships in Mathematics and Statistics Innovation at Heriot Watt University are now open for applications. 

EPSRC Doctoral PhD studentships roles are funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) as part of Heriot-Watt University’s Doctoral Training Partnership award.

This year’s Atmospheric, Oceanic and Planetary Physics Open Day will take place online on Tuesday 2nd December 2025 from 1:30-4:00pm.

Join us online to meet supervisors as well as some of our postdocs, and hear brief talks on their research. There will also be drop-in sessions with supervisors and current students, with ample opportunity for you to ask questions.

The PhD students from the probability group are organising an event for master’s students interested in probability (and related areas) on 10th November at 5pm. The idea is that we all meet on the ground floor of the Statistics department and split into groups so that each table has 1-2 PhD students and a few master’s students.

Thinking about postgraduate study? Join the Department of Statistics on the 19th November for its annual Postgraduate Open Day, with sessions available in person and online. Hear from course directors about the DPhil, MSc in Statistical Science, and the StatML Centre for Doctoral Training, and meet current students and staff.

Ph.D. in Combinatorics at ETH Zurich

The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich) is one of the leading universities in Europe. Its Graduate School in Mathematics is now accepting applications for the Ph.D. program starting next year.

The combinatorics group in the Department of Mathematics includes several graduate students and postdoctoral researchers. The group’s activities are coordinated by Prof. Benny Sudakov.

The Department of Statistics at the University of Warwick will be holding a virtual MSc Open Day for students who may be interested in applying for their Statistics MSc degrees:

The PhD in Statistical and Applied Mathematics at the University of Bath is now accepting applications. This is a fully-funded 4-year programme that offers topics in a range of areas of applied mathematics; machine learning is represented very strongly among those. 

If you would like to solve real-life problems using statistics and operational research to have positive impact on business, the economy or society, then consider applying to the STOR-i Centre for Doctoral Training to start in October 2026. Joining STOR-i will enable you to:
