A unique approach in doctoral training linking mathematicians with scientists and engineers
THE PROGRAMME
MAC-MIGS is a prestigious EPSRC-funded PhD programme in Mathematical Modelling, Analysis and Computation, run jointly by Edinburgh and Heriot-Watt universities, as part of the Maxwell Institute Graduate School, that offers fully-funded scholarships.
MAC-MIGS projects are focussed on the formulation, analysis and implementation of state-of-the-art mathematical and computational models and methods. It offers its PhD students an intensive 4-year training and research programme that equips them with the skills needed to tackle the challenges of data-intensive modelling.
RECENT AND Upcoming Events
LATEST NEWS FROM THE PROGRAMME
At the end of the programme you will be on your way to becoming a leader of your field – in business, as an entrepreneur or as a future academic – but along the way you will be able have a laugh with your fellow students and explore some of the stimulating cultural, social and recreational opportunities provided by Edinburgh and Scotland.
OUR INDUSTRY PARTNERS
As a MAC-MIGS student, you will have many opportunities to work with our Industrial Partners. These range from afternoon events such as our Sandpits, where you will find out how mathematics can be used to tackle real-world problems, through semester-long group projects working directly with our Partners, to full PhDs co-funded by industry. These collaborations provide excellent training and engagement opportunities, whatever your future career path.
