At the heart of the Department of Mathematics & Statistics is the University’s aim of developing useful learning. We're an applied department with many links to industry and government. Most of the academic staff teaching on this course hold joint-appointments with, or are funded by, other organisations, including APHA, Public Health and Intelligence (Health Protection Scotland), NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde and the Marine Alliance for Science and Technology Scotland (MASTS). We bridge the gap between academia and real-life. Our research has societal impact.

Though the programme involves all staff in the Mathematics and Statistics department, it is primarily led by three level-2 Research Groups, namely Numerical Analysis, Continuum Mechanics & Industrial Mathematics, and Data Science & Learning Algorithms.
