Overview

Through the Mathematics course from Lancaster University you will have a formal weekly meeting with your supervisor, supplemented by more frequent, informal contact. Our postgraduate instruction is through either intense lectures (on- or off-campus) under the APTS scheme (Statistics), or term-length courses delivered by video-link, under the MAGIC scheme (Pure Mathematics).

Key facts:

Any remaining skills gaps will be covered through additional lectures or directed reading. You are encouraged to participate in appropriate seminars which provide an ideal opportunity to gain valuable experience of communicating ideas to an audience while also receiving feedback; they also help to set future research directions.
