Welcome to the Department of Economics, Mathematics and Statistics
The Department brings together research and teaching in economics, finance, mathematics and statistics in a single Department which creates significant inter-disciplinary synergies.
Our teaching is informed by the latest research and by the needs of employers. We offer a wide selection of graduate, undergraduate and 'conversion' courses in economics, finance, mathematics and statistics. In addition we also provide customised in-house training to various government departments and city firms.
NEW PROGRAMMES:
Our re-designed MSc Finance programme, starting in Autumn 2012, reflects our 40 years of experience in cutting edge, research-led, evening teaching at Birkbeck. The programme is open to both full-time (one year) and part-time students (two years). Applications are now open.
We have also developed an exciting, new MSc Mathematics programme making full use of the research strengths we now have in the Department. The MSc Mathematics will offer a range of modules in discrete mathematics, algebra and combinatorics, including applicable mathematics such as coding theory and cryptography. Applications are now open.
