This combination of Mathematics and Physics links to many spheres of interest, and students studying this diverse subject are very much in demand with employers. A highlight of your fourth year is undertaking extended projects under the direction of a supervisor in an area of current research. All lecturers in the Department of Mathematics are qualified to PhD level and are research active. The majority have a postgraduate teaching qualification and new staff are required to complete the PGCTHE. The department also employs a number of part time tutors, with extensive teaching experience, and some student demonstrators, who are selected from our undergraduate and postgraduate students. Department of Physics Lecturers are all qualified to PhD level and have a track record of research in their fields of specialisation.
