Quiz software
The "Model Choice" and "Testing Statistics" software are web-based multiple-choice systems with a focus on detailed feedback to learners.
-
A braid
Braids appear spontaneously in both topology and category theory, for reasons that turn out to reveal deep connections between these subjects.
-
Counterflow turbulence
The study of vortex dynamics in superfluid helium may help us understand complex fluid motions, which remains one of natures great challenges.
-
Dynkin diagrams
Dynkin diagrams encode the structure of Weyl groups and Lie algebras. Their representation theory is used in many areas, e.g. quantum many body systems and Frobenius manifolds.
The School of Mathematics & Statistics combines world-leading research expertise in pure and applied mathematics and statistics. In the 2008 Research Assessment Exercise the majority of our submission was judged 4* (world-leading) and 3* (internationally excellent), with statistics achieving the highest 4* rating in Scotland.
If you study with us you can benefit from our excellent teaching standards and supportive learning environment – an impressive 97% of our final year undergraduate students rate themselves as satisfied with their overall experience, according to the 2011 National Student Survey, rating us 1st in Scotland and 2nd in the UK.
