Welcome to the Department of Mathematics

The Department of Mathematics combines leading mathematical and interdisciplinary research with high quality undergraduate and postgraduate teaching, in which we place particular emphasis on small groups and a friendly atmosphere.

We work over a wide range of specialised interests in the areas of pure mathematics (including algebra, geometry, analysis and number theory), applied mathematics (including continuum mechanics and mathematical biology), mathematical physics (including quantum information, quantum field theory and quantum gravity), stochastic analysis (including stochastic partial differential equations), mathematical finance and statistics.

Alumni: York graduates in mathematics wishing to contact the department are welcome to do so by contacting the Mathematics General Office or any current member of academic staff. Please update your contact details.
