Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
We propose a CDT (MASDOC) in the Departments of Mathematics and Statistics at Warwick. The Centre will provide training in the areas of Applied Mathematics, Computation, Probability and Statistics, together with the important interfaces between these areas. They are not only major areas in the mathematical sciences but are also key to developing the mathematical and statistical methodology that increasingly will be required to meet significant modern challenges arising from applications such as climate change, energy production, nano-sciences for technological and medical applications, molecular modelling of materials, models arising in ecology, epidemiology and data mining.The obvious importance of the mathematical areas and the applied challenges also offers an opportunity to recruit talented students into a novel doctoral training centre that prepares students not only with mathematical science tools but also with skills of quantitative and qualitative study, modelling, teamwork and critical thinking. An innovative Research Study Group component has been designed to prepare a new breed of PhDs who are ready to meet new challenges and develop new mathematical frameworks in response to the demands of the applications rather than simply picking up off-the-shelf methodology. The course structure of MASDOC will provide researchers with cutting-edge tools to exploit and explore the many important and emerging synergies between the four research areas. Research topics will be selected with an emphasis on problems at the interfaces between the areas, in all of which Warwick has world leading experience. An international network of graduate training partner programmes in world leading institutions will allow our students to experience some of the most vibrant research groups in the world, while in return, overseas students will spend periods visiting Warwick, enriching the MASDOC research environment.
