John Paul Gosling
Lecturer
"My research interests are in the quantification of uncertainty. Uncertainty comprises of both natural randomness and lack of knowledge. I have developed techniques to help capture experts' beliefs and to perform uncertainty and sensitivity analyses on computationally-expensive computer models (e.g. oil reservoir simulators and hydrology models)."
Applied mathematics
Much of applied mathematics is concerned with solving challenging equations that describe interesting and important problems, and there is ample scope for a wide range of appealing PhD topics.
As well as conducting research in the foundations of applied mathematics, the Department also undertakes research in a variety of multidisciplinary settings. It has excellent connections with many other disciplines, including pure mathematics and statistics within the School of Mathematics, and astronomy, biology, computer science, earth sciences, engineering, environment, food science and physics within the University, as well as links with industry.
