The University of Bath runs a taught MSc programme in Mathematical Biology, suitable for students with a strong mathematical background. It is a year long programme and includes a summer research project. Here is a list of MSc programmes offered by our Department.

Please do get in touch with me if you would like to discuss potential topics. You may also want to have a look at the research interests of other faculty in the Centre for Mathematical Biology (other core members from the Maths Department are Nick Britton, Jane White, Ben Adams and Hartmut Schwetlick).
