The PhD in Mathematical Sciences offers top-tier education and specialized training in mathematics. Leveraging Xian Jiaotong-Liverpool University's global and dynamic research setting, it equips graduates for successful research careers.
Full-time PhD candidates typically spend three years on research and one year writing their thesis, complemented by discipline-focused and transferable skills development. Full-time students must submit their thesis within four years (or six years for part-time candidates).
This program emphasizes independent research. Participants are registered as off-site postgraduate research students with the University of Liverpool while conducting their studies at XJTLU under joint supervision from both institutions.
The program operates through a partnership between XJTLU and the University of Liverpool. Graduates receive a University of Liverpool degree, accredited by both China's Ministry of Education and the UK Department of Education.
