Mathematical Methods for Theoretical Physics (PHAS0026)

Outline:

This course gives a basic grounding in mathematical techniques of differential equations and tensors - together with their application in fluid dynamics - that are of foundational use in theoretical physics.

Aims:

To introduce theoretically-minded students to advanced areas in mathematics, with applications to various problems in physics, particularly in dynamics, and in quantum mechanics, solid mechanics and fluid mechanics
	To provide a deeper treatment of mathematical methods covered in PHAS0025 Mathematical Methods 3
	To provide mathematical underpinning for Theoretical Physics students taking PHAS0030 Computational Physics in term 2 of year 2.
Teaching and Learning Methodology:

This course is delivered via weekly lectures supplemented by a series of problem solving tutorials and additional discussion.

In addition to timetabled lecture and PST hours, it is expected that students engage in self-study in order to master the material. This can take the form, for example, of practicing example questions and further reading in textbooks and online.

Management Science Group Consultancy Project (MSIN0141)

The context for the Management Science Group Consultancy Project module is management in complex, innovation-intensive, data-driven environments.

Students carry out a group consultancy project with an external organisation. It is expected that the project will explore a significant issue faced by an organisation operating in a complex, innovation-intensive, data-driven environment and involve analysis using a range of quantitative tools and quantitative methods.

Students will be expected to draw on the full range of knowledge and skills they have developed during the Management Science MSci programme, and demonstrate their ability to integrate this knowledge and apply it in novel situations.

Students receive support in the form of workshops and team/individual meetings with their allocated Project Director/Supervisor.

The aims of the Group Consultancy Project module are:

To provide students with an opportunity to demonstrate their in-depth knowledge and understanding of management science and how it can be applied in practice.
	To provide students with an opportunity to work as part of a small team tackling an important business issue facing an external organisation.
