The focus of this course is using mathematics to solve biological and biomedical problems. Graduates from his course are well placed to make significant contributions to the rapidly expanding healthcare sector and major societal challenges including global sustainability. This course suits graduates with a degree in mathematics or in a subject with strong mathematical components such as physics, who wish to develop their mathematical skills whilst focussing on solving biological and biomedical problems. The University of Dundee has a long history of research in mathematical biology. Current mathematical biology research in Dundee involves the application of modern applied mathematics and computational modelling to a range of biological topics including cancer growth and treatment, ecology, plant dynamics and microbial biofilms. The mathematical biology group has close links with colleagues in Life Sciences and Medicine which ensure that research projects are driven by cutting-edge science. In this course we use a wide selection of mathematical software packages such as MATLAB, Maple and COMSOL. Students graduating from this programme would be very well placed to take advantage of these global opportunities.
