of mathematicians who collaborate widely across the University and 
beyond. Mathematical Sciences has a varied set of external partners, 
including government agencies and departments, as well as collaborators 
in finance, digital economy, defence, energy, aerospace, retail, and 
transport and logistics.

Strong applicants should demonstrate:

  * a doctorate and postdoctoral experience in a relevant discipline
  * ability to obtain peer-reviewed funding
  * evidence of distinction in research through high-quality publications
  * ability for undergraduate and postgraduate teaching
