Department of Mathematics
POSTGRADUATE PROGRAM IN MATHEMATICS
The Department of Mathematics offers postgraduate research programs, both full time and part time, leading to the degrees of MSc or PhD in mathematics.
Mathematics provides a unique training in abstract reasoning and problem solving. Research in mathematics at Macquarie University is well respected both nationally and internationally, with groupings of mathematicians working in analysis, category theory and number theory, as well as a new direction of research in waves and non-linear dynamics. There are several researchers of very high academic profile, and the Department attracts a substantial amount of external research funding and a steady stream of international visitors who collaborate with members of the Department, making it an ideal environment for postgraduate and postdoctoral research.
The strengths of the Department of Mathematics have been organised into a number of groups which interact formally and informally with other Australian and international mathematicians.
