MSc by Research in Mathematics

3 Years On Campus Masters Program

University of Oxford

Program Overview

The MSc by Research is exactly like a doctorate, but with a research project designed to take less time (normally two years, though it is possible to complete the requirements in a single year). It is not intended as a first step towards a DPhil, but rather as an alternative to a DPhil. There are no associated lectures, classes or written examinations. It can be in any of the subject areas for which supervision is available. This is a higher research degree suitable only for able candidates. The MSc requires a significant and substantial contribution to knowledge.
