Engineering Mathematics

The Engineering MathematicsPhD programme from University of Bristolresearchers carry out cutting-edge work in areas where mathematics is being applied
to future challenges in engineering, industry and the life sciences.

Through this Engineering Mathematics PhD programme from University of Bristol fundamental theoretical and computational advances are made. There is also a strong tradition of interdisciplinary work, international collaboration and publication in leading research journals.

Research is supported by grants from public bodies, such as the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council, the Medical Research Council and the European Union, as well as from local government, national government and industry.

Career opportunities:

Our students follow a wide range of careers, such as mathematical modelling and simulation in engineering consultancies, government scientific civil service, the Met Office and the intelligence services.

Many graduates go on to work in quantitative finance and financial services more broadly and several have recently become entrepreneurs in the data analytics industry. Others follow traditional academic career paths in universities or in public- and private-sector research institutes.
