The connecting thread is the idea that many of these systems, despite their apparent diversity, can be understood using similar mathematical frameworks.
You will work with mathematical modelling of biological systems at the macro-level, covering topics like biological and biotechnical physics, population dynamics and the spread of infectious diseases. You will also look at financial models, game theory and rationality. The range of courses in this offering reflects the breadth of the field, exploring complex interactions between living systems, both in nature and human societies.
Typical roles could include computational biologist, quantitative analysis in finance, or data science in pharmaceutical and biotech fields.
