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. 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, 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.

Students must complete 96 UOC when taken as a standalone program.
