About UsThe Department of Mathematics at UCL is an internationally renowned department within one of the world’s most prestigious universities. Since its beginning, mathematics at UCL has been enhanced by its many outstanding members of staff. Indeed, two of its students (and later staff), Professor Klaus Roth (1958) and Professor Alan Baker (1970), have gone on to win the Fields Medal. Another former member of staff, Professor Tim Gowers, won the Fields Medal in 1998 for work he did whilst at UCL. Since 2011, the department has grown considerably, with over 100 academic and honorary staff members, including fellows of the Royal Society. The department also has approximately 30 Postdoctoral Research Fellows, around 120 PhD students, and 50 MSc students. We welcome a regular stream of distinguished visiting academics from home and abroad. The broad range of research interests is reflected in the wide choice of courses available in the third and fourth years of the degree programmes, from spectral theory, groups and geometry to fluid mechanics, and from mathematical ideas in biology to cosmology. Research funding in the department from EPSRC, ERC, NERC, Leverhulme Trust, and the Wellcome Trust has grown significantly in recent years, more than doubling since 2014. The department has internationally recognised research groups in pure and applied analysis; fluid mechanics; mathematical physics; geometry and topology; algebra, number theory, and combinatorics; mathematical modelling in biology, finance, industry, and society. There are regular departmental seminar series in financial mathematics and applied mathematics, as well as seminar series joint with other London universities in number theory, geometry, and analysis. The department hosts annual London-Paris meetings in analysis and number theory, and a London-Brussels meeting in geometry. The department also hosts an annual meeting in the dynamics of rotating fluids. About the RoleApplications are invited for a full-time Lecturer (Teaching) in Pure or Applied Mathematics.
