MPhil and PhD in Mathematics
The Department of Mathematics at York offers the opportunity to study for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), as well as the degree of Master of Philosophy (MPhil) in Mathematics, in a thriving research environment. You should first have a look at our research, where you will find for each area a list of staff members and their research supervision interests, from which you can click through to individual staff pages. You may like to make email contact to discuss a possible project, but many students come to us with no definite project or supervisor – feel free to apply anyway.
Applicants for admission to graduate research degrees in Mathematics should have or expect to have a good honours degree (equivalent of 2.i or higher) in Mathematics, or a good honours degree in which Mathematics has formed a substantial part of the course.
If you’re a non-native English speaking applicant you must provide evidence of your English language ability before you can start your course. We must be able to verify your test within two years of completion, but you may have completed the test up to two and a half years prior to the start date of your course, and prior study in an English speaking country is acceptable if graduation was within seven years of the course start date.
This is a self-funded programme.
