The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Strathclyde lies at the heart of the University's aim to develop useful learning.
All our degrees, at undergraduate and postgraduate level, develop mathematicians and statisticians that are able to use their skills effectively in whatever profession they chose. As well as our core degrees in mathematics and statistics we have many joint degrees with other Departments around the University - from business studies such as accounting, finance and economics, to areas of science such as physics, computer science and data analytics.
The Department is made up of around 40 academic staff, a number of teaching assistants and about 50 research postgraduates.
- Our research emphasises how mathematics and statistics can be applied in the real world
- Our undergraduate and postgraduate degrees develop mathematicians and statisticians who are able to translate their skills into any career they choose
- Strong links to business, industry and government
Our department is ranked 11th in the UK for Mathematics & Statistics in the Complete University Guide Subject League Table for 2020.
