Our four-year PhD in Actuarial Science (with research and communication skills) course has been specifically designed to support students, whilst also offering additional support for UK students who do not have English as a first language. We recognise and understand the importance of continuing professional development for students and have designed this course for students who do not have English as a first language and may have been studying in a different country, or out of a traditional academic environment for some time.

Our PhD Data Science is an advanced research degree within our School of Mathematics, Statistics and Actuarial Science and we have staff members available to act as supervisors across a number of areas within data science.

One of our most popular courses, MSc Mathematics and Finance allows those with a background in mathematics to study finance. Since finance routinely involves modelling and evaluating risk, asset pricing and price forecasting, mathematics has become an indispensable tool for this study.

Undertaking our PhD Pure Mathematics gives you the opportunity to investigate such areas as algebraic geometry, group theory, semigroup theory, combinatorics and differential equations. We have staff with expertise in each of these areas who are enthusiastic about supervising PhD students.

An Integrated PhD provides a route into research study if you do not have a Masters degree, or have very little research training. It enables you to spend your first year completing a Masters-level qualification, followed by a full-time PhD studied over 3-4 years.

Our PhD Mathematical Biology uses novel mathematical and computational techniques to solve problems in the biological, ecological and environmental sciences. At Essex, we have supervised projects in the areas of animal movement and behaviour, population dynamics, plankton ecology, fisheries and natural resource management, and bioinformatics techniques.

Undertaking our MPhil Pure Mathematics gives you the opportunity to investigate such areas as algebraic geometry, group theory, semigroup theory, combinatorics and differential equations. We have staff with expertise in each of these areas who are enthusiastic about supervising PhD students.

Our PhD Applied Mathematics provides you with the opportunity to study areas such as dynamical systems, pattern formation, chaos theory, ordinary and partial differential equations, Hamiltonian systems, stability theory, computational neuroscience, complex systems, complex networks and nonlinear waves. We have staff with expertise in these areas who are willing to supervise PhD students, and you are invited to contact our School to discuss potential research areas and subjects.
