About us

Mathematics at Royal Holloway is a lively and friendly community with an international reputation for the quality of our teaching and research.

Academic staff are active in pioneering research which is making an impressive impact on the world stage. This strong research culture influences our curriculum, helping students to keep in touch with the latest developments in the field. In the most recent Research Excellence Framework (REF 2021) 96% of Mathematic's research output was judged as world-leading and internationally excellent. This underlines the quality of our research contribution to society and the economy.

There are around 20 academic members of staff who teach a range of undergraduate and postgraduate courses and do research in a number of areas in pure, applied and applicable mathematics, probability and statistics, quantum dynamics and information security.

We provide a supportive learning environment and staff are always ready to give help and advice, with a personal adviser system and generous office hours.
