数学理学硕士（研究）

理科硕士研究的学生将获得一个单独的研究主题，并在数学和统计学院的一名工作人员的亲自监督下对该主题进行研究。研究完成后，将学生的论文提交给该领域的国际专家进行审查。当前在数学和统计学院中可获得的研究领域的详细信息以及最近的研究论文可在该学院的网站上获得。理学硕士学位通常需要至少两年的全日制学习（每周35-40小时，每年48周）。鼓励兼职MSc候选人资格，但仅适用于每周至少花费20个小时进行研究并能够与大学保持定期联系的候选人。申请人的学术资格令人满意，但其背景与所提出的研究主题不完全相符，则可能需要参加有关
The MSc degree provides a basic training in research. Each candidate is given an individual research topic and carries out research on the topic under the personal supervision of a member of staff within one of the three departments of the School of Mathematics and Statistics. On completion of the research the results are incorporated into a thesis which is submitted for examination by international experts in the field. Details of the research areas which are presently available in the School of Mathematics and Statistics, as well as recent research thesis are available on the Mathematics website. The MSc degree can be undertaken either full-time or part-time (or, in some cases, externally). For a full-time candidate the degree normally requires two years of study but a candidate with a first-class honours degree or with previous research experience can apply to have the period reduced by up to one year.
