This one year taught postgraduate programme is suitable to students who wish to improve their background knowledge prior to applying to undertake a PhD by research as well as for students who wish to enhance their knowledge of postgraduate-level abstract mathematics.  The MSc comprises of the taught component, running from the start of the academic year in September until the end of the second semester in late Spring, followed by the dissertation component running from June until September. During the taught component of the course, students will normally take six units together with a research skills and project unit.  Students may choose exclusively pure topics, or a mixture of pure mathematics units and mathematical logic units. In the research skills and project unit students will first complete a mini-project to improve mathematical writing skills, and then undertake a project. The project is normally an expository account of a piece of mathematics and you will write this under the guidance of a supervisor. The taught component comprises of conventional lectures supported by examples classes, project work and independent learning via reading material. After successfully completing the taught component, students will prepare a dissertation on an advanced topic in pure mathematics or mathematical logic, normally of current or recent research interest, chosen in consultation with your supervisor.
