This programme is delivered by the Algebra, Geometry and Quantum Physics (AGQ) Centre for Doctoral Training, which spans across 3 leading Scottish universities: the University of Glasgow, Heriot-Watt University and the University of Edinburgh. On this programme, you must take taught courses while completing the research elements of a traditional PhD programme. The AGQ Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) aims to train graduate students to research excellence in diverse disciplines, such as: - pure mathematics - mathematical and theoretical physics, including: algebra, geometry, topology, quantum field theory, gauge theory and gravity You will navigate the many vibrant interfaces among these disciplines, learning to communicate ideas fluently across different areas of mathematics and physics, and harnessing the power of interfaces to advance research. You will incorporate advanced computing methods in your research and will have the opportunity to work with some of our 30+ partners in the international academic community, industry, and the third sector. You will train together in cohorts, combining multiple disciplines and backgrounds. You will be supported to work on short group projects and to participate in a variety of activities to enhance your mathematical/scientific breadth and communication skills. You will also benefit from being part of the Edinburgh Mathematical Physics Group, a multidisciplinary research group with close connections to the School of Mathematics’ Algebra and Geometry and Topology groups.
