Overview

Mathematics (Applied Mathematics) from University of Cambridge excellent preparation for mathematical research and it is also a valuable course in mathematics and its applications for those who want further training before taking posts in industry, teaching, or research establishments.

Students admitted from outside Cambridge to the Part III are admitted to the Master of Advanced Study (MASt). Cambridge students continuing from the Cambridge Mathematical Tripos for a fourth-year are admitted to the Master of Mathematics (MMath). The requirements and course structure for MASt and the MMath are the same.

As a taught masters course, the main emphasis is on lecture courses, and assessment is almost entirely based on written exams, which are taken at the end of the academic year starting in the last week of May, alongside a mathematical essay, normally due in early May. The standard graduation dates for successful candidates are usually in June and July.

After completing the MASt (Part III), students will be expected to have:

studied advanced material in the mathematical sciences to a level not normally covered in a first degree;
further developed the capacity for independent study of mathematics and problem-solving at a higher level; and
undertaken an extended essay normally chosen from a list covering a wide range of topics.
