Dear all,
The following scheme may be of interest to undergrads. We would like as
many applications as possible, so please spread the word!
Thanks,
Matt

Pathway to Research scheme - a scheme for students completing, or having
completed, a BSc or taught Masters
The SAMBa CDT, based in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the
University of Bath, is seeking applicants to its Pathway to Research
scheme. This will provide three people, who have the potential to be
excellent mathematical researchers, but who have – for any number of
reasons – not been able to take advantage of enough mathematical
training to get them ready for PhD research, with a year long programme
of training and mentorship in a research environment, plus a £10,000
bursary, resulting in an MSc qualification.

Barriers to academic progress that applicants may have faced could
include significant caring responsibilities, the need to work during
their studies, a lack of access to fundamental mathematics courses (e.g.
Further Maths A level), having had a restricted choice of location for
their undergraduate degree, and there will be many more. It may be that
there are people on your courses, or those who have recently graduated,
who are unaware that a career in research mathematics was even an option
and please can I encourage you to make them aware of this scheme.
The deadline for applications is 16th May, with a visit day for those
who apply planned for 26th May.
