We have a strong track record of partnerships on key research initiatives to explore and drive innovation, including two Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTP).
This has resulted in the creation of the Atom Bank Digital Twin; an end-to-end banking model based on mathematical and statistical methods.
Our pioneering statisticians have developed novel mathematical and statistical methods that are being used to support business decisions in financial planning, resourcing, product pricing and funding.
This case study was recently highlighted in the University Research Excellence Framework 2021.
We have signed a five-year Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Atom Bank.
Our partnership with Atom Bank will see us carry out collaborative research that addresses longer term opportunities and challenges facing both organisations and wider society, such as climate change.
We have a wide range of work being planned including:
We are also working together to develop key initiatives in data science, risk analysis, as well as a focus on sustainable communities and protecting the environment.
Our Department of Mathematical Sciences combines world-leading research with a dedication to the learning experience of our students. Ranked 4th in the UK in The Complete University Guide 2023, we offer a unique blend of high-quality teaching and research across a wide range of disciplines and provide practical experience to support future careers and employment prospects.
