Mathematical Sciences department

The Mathematical Sciences department's strengths are its close links with industry, and an emphasis on modelling and computing skills.

Our research ranges from statistical programming and stochastic modelling to financial mathematics and decision analysis, including game theory.

Research in mathematical sciences

We conduct research via several institutes and centres, and host the Mathematical Sciences Research Group.

Su Yuan Chan
Great graduatesSu Yuan ChanMaster of ScienceMaster's student Su Yuan Chan says that mathematics is everywhere. Her research looks at social networks and uses her skills in game theory and graph theory.We use mathematics every single day, says Su Yuan Chan. She would highly recommend the Master of Science to others, Su says. Along with receiving a great education, her time at AUT has led to meeting new friends and colleagues from various backgrounds and cultures. Being able to learn from knowledgeable and caring staff has been one of the highlights of her studies.

Bachelor of Mathematical SciencesIf you’re passionate about science and astronomy research AUT is a great university to study, says Asif Rayhan Rasha who completed a Master of Science.If you’re passionate about science and astronomy research AUT is a great university to study, says Asif Rayhan Rasha. AUT’s involvement in key projects like the Square Kilometre Array - a billion dollar mega science project that involves more than 20 countries - appealed to him, Asif says. For his Master of Science research Asif focused on improving AUT’s telescope.

Bachelor of Mathematical SciencesAn understanding of computing, analytics and big data is crucial in today’s technology-driven world, says AUT Master of Analytics student Elliot Rohl.An understanding of computing and analytics is crucial in today’s technology-driven world, says Elliot Rohl, who completed his Bachelor of Mathematical Sciences before enrolling in a Master of Analytics. The opportunity to network with industry professionals was one of the highlights of his study, says Elliot. Being able to share the findings of some of his research with one of New Zealand’s biggest companies was another highpoint for him.
